United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc will be hosting the managing director/chief executive officer, Airtel Nigeria, Segun Ogunsanya, at the UBA Business Series on Tuesday, June 30.
The UBA Business Series, which is held quarterly, is a capacity-building initiative where leading business leaders share insights on best business practices on how entrepreneurs can build a sustainable business empire especially in the challenging business environment in Africa.
In this edition which will be held via Microsoft Teams, Mr Ogunsanya will give tips to business leaders and participants on ways to ensure their businesses survive especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The open event will be held virtually starting at 2pm on Tuesday and interested participants can register via http://bit.ly/UBA-business-series-registration.
Ogunsanya will be speaking on the topic “Strategies and competencies for adjusting to a Post COVID-19 Business Environment” and will aim to equip business owners with the important and essential strategies on how to recover and rebuild their business concerns following losses incurred due to the pandemic which took the world by storm, thus forcing many businesses to re-examine their models and strategies in line with the new normal.
UBA’s head of consumer and retail banking, Jude Anele, said that far beyond banking services, UBA is interested in ensuring that customers and entrepreneurs run businesses that can stand the test of time.
He said: “Even in this period of the pandemic, it is interesting to note that some businesses are still making it big. How? These are some of the questions we will address in our seminar on Tuesday. We have a business leader who is experienced in every sense of the word and is willing to share insight with others on ways to grow their business and put it on firm footing as we try to move beyond this pandemic. I will advise everyone to tune in, even if you do not have a business, it is an opportunity to learn something new.”
