Heirs Holdings has convened over 100 board members from across all its investee companies, at the HH Group Directors’ Annual Summit.
The summit, held at Transcorp Hilton Hotel in Abuja from June 13 to 16, 2024, drew on the experience of board members of investee companies from sectors where HH invests: healthcare, power, energy, technology, financial services, hospitality and real estate.
Also present were trustees of the Group’s philanthropy organisation, Tony Elumelu Foundation, which catalyses young entrepreneurs across Africa.
The summit provided the opportunity to reinforce the Group’s strong governance practices and identify opportunities for innovation and impact, as well as celebrating business achievements.
Speaking at the HH Group Summit, Group Chairman, Heirs Holdings, Tony Elumelu, emphasised HH’s mandate to ‘build to last’ and to ‘build for impact’.
“Over the past decade, we have inculcated in our business the criticality of strong corporate governance practices. We only invest for the long term, strategically and patiently. These twin commitments are fundamental to our success; we are indeed building to last, redefining success in every sector we operate in, and demonstrating our purpose to improve lives and transform Africa.”
The summit culminated in a closing ceremony and dinner, hosting influential figures across Nigeria’s public and private sectors, including the Vice President of Nigeria, Sen. Kashim Shettima, ministers, ambassadors, policymakers and leaders of civil society.
Speaking at the closing ceremony, Shettima remarked: “When the history of Nigeria and indeed Africa’s banking history and revolution will be written, one name will stand out – having carved a niche for itself and engraved its name on the walls of banking and Africa’s entrepreneurship.”
