The Enugu State Government has appointed Napa Onwusah, global business leader and founder of B4B Partners, to the Advisory Board of the 2026 Enugu Tech Festival (ETF).

Her appointment follows the formation of the Central Planning Committee, comprising a Local Organising Committee (LOC) and an Advisory Board of prominent technology, innovation, and business leaders from Nigeria and the global diaspora.

With over 20 years of leadership at global giants like Amazon Web Services, Google, Visa, Nokia, Microsoft, SAP, and Cisco, Onwusah is recognised as a transformative figure in business. Onwusah is committed to empowering non-tech entrepreneurs, mentoring startups, and accelerating enterprise growth.

She is also an international speaker on technology, leadership, and business expansion, author of two books, and founder of initiatives such as B4B Partners, Café Napa, and the Luminary Awards.

The Enugu State Commissioner for Science, Technology, and Innovation, Lawrence Ezeh, praised Onwusah’s expertise, noting her critical role in shaping the strategic direction and execution of ETF 2026. As an Advisory Board member, Onwusah will contribute insights on partnerships, programming, and ecosystem growth, aligning with ETF’s mission to drive creativity, skills development, and inclusive economic progress.

The Enugu Tech Festival 2026, themed “Coal to Code: Energy in New Form,” is scheduled for February 24–27, 2026, in Enugu State. Building on the success of its inaugural edition, which drew over 28,000 digital participants, the event aligns with Governor Peter Mbah’s vision to position Enugu as a hub for technology and innovation-driven economic transformation.
