INGLEWOOD – Inglewood Mayor James T. Butts Jr. will host an African delegation at City Hall during the “The Global Exchange Business, Innovation & Impact” between Nov. 7 and 10.
Promoter Christelle Lorene Adibeyi, CEO of Lilas Staffing Agency, has structured the event not as a typical conference, but as a pragmatic “soft-landing” accelerator. The vision is to deliver on its slogan: “Where cities, capital, and founders meet.”
The event will provide rare B2G (Business to Government) access, including a strategic tour of the Port of Los Angeles to decode logistics and a high-level briefing at Mayor Butts’ office.
Mayor Butts and procurement expert Jack Ochoa will provide a roadmap for winning government contracts.
Greg Cullen (Harvard Investment Group) will tackle access to capital. Critically, Alfonso Washington (Africa USA Chamber of Commerce) and Tadios Belay (U.S Africa Institute) are integrated to provide the vital Africa-USA market linkages.
“The Global Exchange” is an accelerator, not a symposium. Christelle Lorene Adibeyi hasn’t just opened the door to Los Angeles; she has built the guided pathway to walk right through it.
