The Howard University African Business Club (HUABC) will be hosting her 2nd Annual African Business Conference from February 27- February 28, 2009 in conjunction with the Howard University School of Business. The primary aim of the conference is to highlight business and career opportunities in African countries, as well as create a platform to showcase the positively thriving economic side of the African story to the global community.
This aim will be achieved by featuring speakers on various panel sessions that will be selected from proactive corporate bodies and academia on the African continent and in the Diaspora. These speakers will have the knowledge and expertise to educate and enlighten the conference participants on the growing business landscape in Africa.
