Just in: Tinubu to perform historic US NASDAQ Bell Ringing Sept 20
The United States Chamber of Commerce has concluded arrangements that will see President Bola Tinubu perform the historic NASDAQ Bell Ringing on Wednesday, September 20, 2023 at 3:45pm Eastern Standard Time / 20:45 West Africa Standard Time.
According to a statement emailed to Business Hilights by the US Chamber of Commerce, the event, billed for the NASDAQ world headquarters, said “the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s U.S.-Africa Business Center will host Nigerian President Bola Tinubu to ring the NASDAQ closing bell”.
“The U.S. Chamber’s bell ringing ceremony with President Tinubu, taking place on the sidelines of the 78th session of the UN General Assembly, symbolizes the significance of the economic ties between the United States and Nigeria.
The Chamber further averred that “We hope this celebration and the discussion as part of the U.S.-Nigeria Executive Business Dialogue serve to further strengthen economic ties and enhance collaboration between the U.S. and Nigerian business communities.
Recall that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is the world’s largest business organization representing companies of all sizes across every sector of the economy. Our members range from the small businesses and local chambers of commerce that line the Main Streets of America to leading industry associations and large corporations.
Again, they all share one thing: They count on the U.S. Chamber to be their voice in Washington, across the country, and around the world. For more than 100 years, we have advocated for pro-business policies that help businesses create jobs and grow our economy.
