ICT has, in recent times, become an integral part of our lives. With increasing accessibility and reliance on phones and the internet, it is important that SMEs learn to leverage on this huge virtual market space and on technology to promote their businesses and become more efficient and cost-effective. This is why this year’s theme Leveraging ICT for SME Development in Nigeria’ is quite apt. The goal is to help introduce small businesses to the latest tech-driven solutions and its applications to boost production and improve business efficiency.

As the former president of the CYAA and the founder of the Christian Business Fair, Francis Ugokwe said during his speech at the maiden edition, “Christianity is Love in action and this is what the Christian Business Fair represents. We have created a platform for empowering and promoting Christian Enterprise.” The current President Ijeoma Ibuaka also mentioned that “the focus on Christians is not to disenfranchise other religions but to affect positive change beginning from our circle of influence. We hope that we will continue to grow until we are big enough to reach out to everyone.”

Major Highlights of this year’s fair include:

Exhibition and Networking – The #CBF2018 provides the opportunity to meet with Christian entrepreneurs and to interact with nearly 100 business owners and 5,000 potential clients.
