ABEC History

Africa Business Ethics Conference (ABEC) is an annual conference that brings together the private sector, government, civil society and the media fraternity to discuss issues around business ethics.
This forum, mooted and organized by Milestones Resource Solutions was first hosted in 2019 after which there have been four iterations in various regions of Africa including East Africa (Kenya), West Africa (Nigeria) and Southern Africa (Botswana). Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE) has been a core funding partner of each of these conferences that have enabled national discourse on the law, policy, strategies and opportunities around the issues of business ethics.

Commencing with a physical gathering in 2019, ABEC welcomed 222 delegates from diverse nations including Kenya, the USA, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, France, and Mauritius. Evolving into a hybrid format in 2020, the conference adeptly adapted to global circumstances. By 2021, ABEC drew 430 delegates from a broad spectrum of countries, highlighting its expanding influence and outreach. Returning to a physical setting in 2023.
