Fidelity Bank Plc, a leading African financial institution, is set to host the third edition of its flagship market access event — the Fidelity International Trade and Creative Connect (FITCC) from September 18 to 20, 2025, at the Omni Atlanta Hotel at Centennial Park, Georgia, USA.
In a strategic effort to strengthen diaspora and transatlantic business ties, Fidelity Bank is partnering with Amplify Africa, the organizers of AFRICON, the premier African diaspora business and culture summit in the U.S.
This collaboration unites two influential platforms dedicated to connecting African enterprises with global opportunities.
Commenting on the upcoming event, Dr. Nneka Onyeali-Ikpe, Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity Bank, stated “Since our inaugural edition in 2022, FITCC has grown into more than a platform for promoting Nigeria’s non-oil exports – it is now a powerful showcase of the immense value Nigeria brings to the global market. As part of our commitment to fostering economic growth, creativity, and sustainable trade within and beyond Nigeria, we are proud to announce this year’s FITCC will take place in the dynamic city of Atlanta, USA.”
Following the resounding success of previous editions in London and Houston — which together generated a deal pipeline exceeding $500 million, FITCC Atlanta 2025 will feature over 100 Nigerian exporters, alongside U.S. buyers, investors, policy leaders, and diaspora-driven business networks.
The expo will spotlight key sectors such as agriculture, consumer-packaged goods, energy transition minerals, fashion, beauty, and the broader creative economy. Attendees can look forward to business exhibitions, B2B matchmaking sessions, policy forums, diaspora investment panels, and expert-led workshops aimed at expanding Nigeria’s footprint in global markets.
With an expected attendance of over 3,000 participants, including development finance institutions, chambers of commerce, trade promotion agencies, and multinational corporations, FITCC 2025 is poised to be a landmark event. It also aligns with current government initiatives to boost U.S.–Nigeria trade and investment under new bilateral frameworks.
