Scaling creative and service-based businesses beyond local markets is one of the biggest challenges many African SMEs face. Not because of a lack of talent or demand, but because of gaps in structure, visibility, global positioning, and access to the right opportunities.
This is where the conversation shifts.
Dr. Princess Kelechi Oghene (@princess_oghene ), Founder and Group Managing Director of GMYT Group Ltd., will be speaking at Africa Day 2026 on Scaling Africa’s Creative and Service-Based SMEs into Global Businesses, sharing practical insights on how businesses can move from local success to global relevance.
With over 15 years of experience building and scaling purpose-driven institutions, she has empowered over 12,000 women and youth through GMYT Fashion Academy and continues to drive impact across education, enterprise, and leadership.
This is not just a panel. It is a chance to:
• Understand what holds creative and service businesses back from global growth
• Learn how to position your business for international opportunities
• Gain clarity on building systems that support scale beyond borders
Theme: Transforming Africa’s Business Landscape
Date: Friday, 22nd May 2026
