The senator representing Ondo South Senatorial District and Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Global Fleet Group, a diversified conglomerate based in Nigeria, Jimoh Ibrahim, has been named among the keynote speakers for the upcoming Cambridge Africa Business Conference.

The conference, which will be held at the Cambridge Judge Business School on May 17, 2025, will feature global business leaders and technocrats.

According to the organisers, since 2012, CABC has been the gathering place for Africa’s boldest thinkers, industry disruptors, and global power players.

“The Black Continent will be defined not by the challenges it faces, but by the ingenuity, resilience, and ambition of those shaping its future. This year’s speakers are true powerhouses; leaders who have built (and are currently building) the rails the continent depends on.

“We’ve pulled together a group of people shaping what business from—and for—Africa will look like. Africa is at an inflection point. It’s emerging as a global hub for innovation, investment, and influence, but still facing structural barriers that limit its full potential,” the organisers said.

They added, “This year’s theme, ‘Africa Tomorrow: Driving Innovation, Growth, and Global Influence,’ is all about what’s next—how we push boundaries, scale solutions, and shape Africa’s role on the world stage. If you’re serious about the future of business in Africa, this is where you need to be.”

Ibrahim studied law at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria, graduating with the degree of Bachelor of Laws (LLB). Subsequently, he obtained the degree of Master of Public Administration (MPA), also from Obafemi Awolowo University.

Later, he attended Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, graduating with a combined Master of Laws (LLM) and Master’s in International Taxation degree. His investments include the following sectors, among others: oil & gas distribution, hotels, resorts, airlines, banking, real estate, insurance, publishing, and investments.
