The media reports that speaking at the closing ceremony held this afternoon, Southern Province Minister, Credo Nanjuwa, described the event as fruitful.
Mr Nanjuwa said he was happy that for the past few days, the province had witnessed innovation, rich history and culture, business and vision for greater opportunities ahead.
“As we come to the end of this south expo 2025, our hearts are filled with gratitude, pride and renewed purpose. This has not just been an event but a movement, a celebration of Southern resilience, creativity and the unstoppable series of progress,” Mr Nanjuwa said.
The Minister thanked the sponsors of the event for the confidence they had shown and for providing support to ensure a successful event.
He commended Kanona Power Company Limited, Maamba Energy and other partners who made their finances available to make the event a success.
Mr Nanjuwa was pleased to mention that the sponsors of the South Expo invested in an idea that the province can be a hub of excellence, adding that today that idea has come alive for the whole world to see.
“To our exhibitors, you brought this expo to light. Your innovation, your products and your stories have inspired countless conversations and sparked new opportunities and you have also shown that the south is always ready for such undertakings,” he added.
Mr Nanjuwa assured the people in the province, the business partners, sponsors and everyone that participated during the Expo that as the event has come to a close, it does not mean that it has died completely, but that it will be held on an annual basis.
