TOP Nigerian CEOs from diverse sectors of the economy are meeting at The Nigeria Telecom Impact CEO Forum 2015 to deliberate on how the influence of telecommunications could contribute 25 per cent to the country’s GDP. The event holds on October 30 in Lagos.
 
Themed: “How Telecoms Can Contribute 25% to the GDP by 2025”, the Impact CEO Forum would focus on the recently rebased Gross Domestic Product [GDP] figures, which revealed that Nigeria’s telecommunications sector is “a star performer in the economy”.
 
Organiser of the event, ICT Watch Network, Tayo Adewusi, said as more sectors of the Nigerian economy appreciate the importance of telecommunications in improving their productivity and efficiency, there is a need to have an open platform where “C-level executives of various sectors will meet the telecommunication companies to discuss current trends and make realizable projections into the future”.
   
He explained that the Impact CEO Forum is envisioned as the foremost influential meeting of top-level executives who will assess the impression of telecom on their businesses
