On the other hand, he noted that “Africa needs to be celebrated even more as the continent has contributed so much to the sustainability of the world, and we have a lot of great entrepreneurs.”
He added that “More giants are rising, and I want to thank the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the support for African entrepreneurs, and we hope the relationship continues even bigger and better.”
Titans of Africa, an initiative of the UAE AFRICA Networking Group is a coffee-table book that captures the journey to Titian-ship of 50 individuals of direct African descent who are currently making an impact that will pave the way for future positive images and accounts within their community or industry. It features stories of failures and triumphs through lessons learned from these 50 direct African descent individuals. Usually, these stories are simple, yet complex, and serve as a reflection of how everyday people can make a difference. It is one of a kind and also the first time within the African community in the year that history will mention the African renaissance in the UAE.
