7th Continental Re CEO Summit: Visionary Insights from Captains of Industry
In October 2022, Continental Re proudly resumed its prestigious CEO Summit after a two-year Covid-induced hiatus. The eagerly
awaited event brought together 70 distinguished captains of industry, providing an unparalleled platform for insightful
discussions on the challenges and opportunities shaping the insurance sector and Africa's economies in the year ahead. Launched
in 2014, this annual gathering, hosted by a different African country each year to reflect our pan-African footprint, once again
showcased our commitment to fostering growth and progress across the continent. This year's CEO Summit unfolded in the
vibrant city of Marrakesh, Morocco, adding a rich cultural backdrop to the engaging proceedings.
With the return of the CEO Summit, we reaffirmed our steadfast commitment to advancing the insurance industry and
contributing to Africa's economic development.
The industry leaders brought their unique perspectives and experiences to the table. This confluence of minds provided an
exceptional opportunity to delve into the critical issues facing the insurance sector and Africa's economies. Amid challenges lies a
realm of opportunities for those who can see beyond the horizon. The valuable insights shared by industry leaders during this
event serve as guiding beacons, directing us towards a future full of promise and progress.
We took the opportunity to bid a heartfelt farewell and organize an in-person event to honour the retirement of Dr. Femi
Oyetunji, the former Group Managing Director. The event was held to express our gratitude for his dedicated service to the
Company throughout the years, as he embarked on retirement in April 2021. As an appreciation of his invaluable contributions,
one of the Continental Re sponsored Journalism Awards was named after him, cementing his legacy and impact on our
organization.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the participants, partners, and stakeholders whose unwavering support
made this 7th CEO Summit an outstanding success.
