MLC Overview

The Made-In-Africa Leadership Conference (MLC) is an annual gathering of African business owners and business leaders, Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) & Managing Directors (MDs), Owners of small and large businesses in Africa, the Diasporan Community who wish to return to Africa to do business and Executive Teams of organizations in Africa.

Our theory of change at BCA is that, a majority of leaders of organizations and institutions in Africa will be made aware of and given equitable access to the transformative services of knowledge-sharing and executive coaching. As leaders regularly access these services, they will be enabled to make optimal decisions; their organizations will be better placed to achieve their goals/visions; their communities will experience improved economic and social development; human development in Africa will benefit subsequently.

Why We Convene

To encourage and foster leadership growth among African leaders

While many are born with leadership tendencies, it takes conscious efforts to mold people into the right kind of leaders who exert the right influence and leave positive legacies. MLC offers the opportunity for leaders to unlearn, learn, re-learn, reflect and study from the experiences of people, both good and bad.

To spur intra-Africa trade and collaboration

The World Economic Forum has projected that The AfCFTA implementation, which started in January 2021, has the potential to increase intra-African trade from its current 18% of total trade to 50% by 2030 with the potential to lift 30 million people out of extreme poverty. However, achieving its full potential depends on putting in place significant policy reforms and trade facilitation measures. MLC brings together ambitious and daring Africans who are ready to take new routes through partnerships and collaborations to lift 30 million people and more out of poverty.

To increase productivity and production of goods and services in Africa

All of the resources that African leaders need to grow their organizations and institutions can be found in Africa. At MLC we meet and exchange ideas, learn from and challenge each other, and build the foundation for future business and alliances.
