The stage is set for the African Ambassadors Economic Forum 2025, taking place from July 18–20, 2025, at the prestigious Africa House in Washington, DC, USA. This highly anticipated event will bring together African leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs, and global partners to discuss strategies for strengthening US-Africa relations and advancing the African Union Agenda 2063.
A major highlight of the forum will be the keynote address by Amb. (Dr.) Utchay Odims, a renowned leadership coach, serial entrepreneur, and Co-founder and President of the Global Initiative for the Advancement of Africa (GIAA).
Dr. Utchay Odims is globally respected for his leadership development strategies, youth empowerment programs, and his commitment to driving economic growth and good governance across Africa.
With a proven track record through initiatives such as the Africa Women Impact Summit (AfriWIS) and successful businesses like Jautos Luxury Car Rentals and J-Air Private Jet Charter, Dr. Odims continues to bridge gaps between leadership, entrepreneurship, and sustainable development in Africa.
At the African Ambassadors Economic Forum 2025, Dr. Odims will focus on building strategic partnerships, economic collaboration, and empowering African leaders to take proactive roles in global governance and economic diplomacy.
This forum is not just a meeting; it is a call to action to unify African voices and strengthen partnerships that will position the continent as a rising force in the global economy. Attendees can expect powerful keynote sessions, high-level panel discussions, and invaluable networking opportunities that will impact Africa’s future trajectory.
Washington DC will be the heartbeat of African leadership this July — and Dr. Utchay Odims is one voice you won’t want to miss.
