ITIC has strengthened its presence in Africa by launching an affiliate office in Lagos, Nigeria with Mr. Reggie Mezu, a long-time ITIC Senior Advisor, who will serve as ITIC’s Africa representative and lead ITIC’s growing programs in the region. ITIC President Daniel Witt said, “Sub-Saharan Africa represents one of the fastest growing regional economies in the world. The tax, regulatory and governance challenges are among the biggest obstacles to unleashing further growth and development.”

Reggie Mezu added, “Having an ITIC presence in Africa will provide a strong platform to build new partnerships with public-sector stakeholders and industry groups to further advance ITIC’s missions and programs throughout Africa.”
