Through various workshops, training sessions, and innovative initiatives, the convention will provide a platform for personal growth and development.

A key focus area will be entrepreneurship, encouraging young leaders to create job opportunities and stimulate economic growth. This emphasis on entrepreneurship will not only benefit individuals but also contribute to the broader socio-economic development of the region.

The convention will also offer invaluable networking opportunities, bringing together young leaders, peers, and industry experts. This exchange will facilitate meaningful connections, mentorship, and knowledge sharing, ultimately fostering intergenerational solidarity. By empowering young leaders, JPI aims to cultivate a brighter future for Nigeria, Africa, and generations to come.

Renowned speakers, interactive workshops, and networking opportunities will feature at this year’s convention. JPI is committed to sharing information, knowledge, education, and global experiences to help young leaders achieve their goals.

“Today’s young people are tomorrow’s leaders,” said Dr. Jamie Pajoel, Founder and Global President of JPI. “We believe that by empowering them with the right skills and mindset, we can unlock their potential to drive positive change in their communities.”
