Senior Special Assistant to the Governor of Delta State on Diaspora Investment, Chief Sunny Ofehe, is set to host global chief executive officers (CEOs) at the two-day Sustainability, Opportunity, Future, Technologies (S.O.F.T) conference in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
Ofehe’s appointment as Chairman of the Organising Committee for the highly anticipated event cements his reputation as a bridge-builder between Europe and Africa.
With his proven track record in diaspora engagement and international business mobilisation, Ofehe is already setting a remarkable tone for what is poised to be a landmark event.
His leadership has not only inspired confidence among stakeholders but has also galvanised top European CEOs, hedge fund managers, venture capitalists, civil society leaders, and EU government representatives into action.
In the historic city of Rotterdam, Netherlands, Ofehe convened a powerful roundtable where discussions on the SOFT Conference, Africa’s emerging economic potentials, and the vast investment opportunities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria took center stage.
This strategic meeting served as a prelude to the Dubai conference and generated renewed excitement about the continent’s future.
Speaking during the Rotterdam gathering, Ofehe emphasised his unwavering commitment to mobilising European investors and corporate leaders to not just attend the SOFT Conference, but to explore concrete partnerships that will shape the future of Africa through innovation, sustainability, and inclusive development.
