Coronation Group has reaffirmed its dedication to Africa’s transformation, committing to impactful initiatives that support sustainable development and long-term prosperity across the continent.
Mr Wole Onasanya, Group Chief Executive Officer, stated on Sunday that Coronation will return as Gold Sponsor of the 2025 Africa CEO Forum.
He noted that the sponsorship aligns with Coronation’s vision for a thriving and prosperous Africa, driven by collaboration, innovation, and purpose-led leadership.
“Coronation Group is proud to return as a Gold Sponsor of the Africa CEO Forum 2025,” Onasanya said.
The Forum takes place on May 12 and 13 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, gathering top African business leaders and policymakers.
“This platform remains vital for shaping strategic dialogue, encouraging partnerships, and creating a shared vision for Africa’s economic future,” Onasanya said.
He added, “Our continued sponsorship reflects Coronation’s unwavering commitment to Africa’s progress and legacy-building efforts.
“We view ourselves as a prosperity partner, dedicated to sustainable wealth creation and meaningful economic transformation.
“The Forum offers a space for thoughtful engagement, collaborative leadership, and visionary ambition. We’re honoured to support it once again.”
Onasanya confirmed that Mr Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Chairman of Coronation Group, will lead Coronation’s participation at the Forum.
Aig-Imoukhuede will feature in a headline one-on-one discussion on how African family-owned businesses can evolve from survival to generational legacy.
Paul Abiagam, Acting CEO of Coronation Merchant Bank, will also participate in a strategic panel on navigating the Cost of Capital Crisis.
The panel will explore how African businesses can respond to geopolitical shifts with innovation and opportunity-focused strategies.
“Coronation is dedicated to African-led financial solutions that unlock the continent’s potential,” Onasanya said.
He added that the Africa CEO Forum offers a vital stage for turning bold financial ideas into action.
“At the heart of our participation is craftsmanship — our ethos expressed through transformational financial services across Africa.
“It’s a belief we carry into every market, every partnership, and every opportunity,” he said.
Presidents from Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, South Africa, Ghana, Rwanda, and Tanzania are expected to attend the Forum. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
