H.E. Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
Former President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
With great pleasure, I welcome you to the Second Edition of the African Conference on Agricultural Technology (ACAT) — a dynamic platform for advancing innovation, collaboration, and sustainable transformation in Africa’s agricultural landscape. As we gather again, I invite participants, investors, governments, development partners, and all stakeholders to join hands in harnessing the power of science, technology, and indigenous knowledge to strengthen food systems across our continent. ACAT is more than a conference; it is a movement — a call to action for inclusive growth, youth engagement, and climate-smart solutions that will ensure food security for generations to come. The future of Africa depends on our ability to unlock the full potential of our agricultural sector through strategic investments and meaningful partnerships. Together, let us cultivate ideas, share experiences, and drive innovations that will transform African agriculture into a pillar of prosperity and resilience. Welcome to ACAT 2025. Let us grow Africa together.
