Entrepreneur and long-standing client Ibrahim Zibiri delivered the keynote address, emphasising the critical factors for business sustainability, including profitability, human capital, strong business foundations, and adaptability. Zibiri stressed the importance of investing in employees and highlighted how technology and artificial intelligence are set to transform business operations.
He also underscored the vital role of insurance in safeguarding business assets, providing a personal example of Epicure's support in arranging coverage for machinery and valuables during various incidents.
