The event was organized by the Department of Business Administration, Faculty of Management Sciences, and attended by academics, industry stakeholders, government agency representatives, and graduating students.
Dr. Muhammad Adamu, the Deputy Director of the Entrepreneurship Development Centre, highlighted the increasing significance of e-business in today's world, emphasizing how technology has permeated all aspects of life. He stated that the rapid technological transformation necessitates universities to move beyond theory and equip students with practical knowledge and entrepreneurial opportunities to thrive in the modern economy.
SAZU's vice-chancellor, Professor Fatimah Tahir, assured the university's continued support for initiatives that promote teaching, innovation, entrepreneurship, and practical learning. She praised the department for creating an opportunity for MBA students to transform classroom knowledge into practical business ideas and urged the graduates to uphold university values and become ambassadors of the institution.

He noted that e-business has opened new avenues for businesses to reach customers globally, reduce costs, enhance service delivery, and create additional revenue streams.
Inuwa stressed the potential for Bauchi State to become a significant e-business hub in Africa due to its youthful population and expanding digital ecosystem. The MBA students developed three e-business concepts, with one already in the prototyping phase. The exhibition served as a culmination of the students' practical learning experience and a launchpad for their entrepreneurial journey.
The event concluded with the presentation of awards to the vice-chancellor and other distinguished individuals, and the MBA students presented a new printer to the Department of Business Administration as a token of appreciation for their support.
