Fidelity Bank Plc is set to host the next edition of its Quarterly Business Forum on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, in Kano, bringing together business owners, entrepreneurs, industry leaders and key stakeholders to explore opportunities for business growth and sustainability across Northern Nigeria.
The Kano edition builds on the success of the Bank’s previous Quarterly Business Forum held in Port Harcourt, which provided business owners and entrepreneurs with practical insights, valuable industry connections, and opportunities for sustainable business growth.
Themed “Positioning Northern Businesses for Growth,” the forum will spotlight the opportunities and trends shaping the business landscape in the region.
Discussions will focus on practical strategies for strengthening business operations, enhancing financial management, improving access to finance, leveraging digital solutions, expanding market reach and building businesses that are positioned for long-term growth.
Speaking ahead of the event, Divisional Head, Small and Medium-scale Enterprises Banking, Fidelity Bank Plc, Ugochi Osinigwe, said, “The Fidelity Bank Quarterly Business Forum is designed to equip businesses with practical knowledge, meaningful connections, and access to opportunities that can drive growth and competitiveness.
“Bringing this edition to Kano underscores our commitment to supporting businesses across Nigeria and, particularly, empowering entrepreneurs in Northern Nigeria with the knowledge and resources they need to unlock their growth potential.”
The forum will feature insightful sessions with industry experts and business leaders, along with opportunities for participants to network, share experiences and gain actionable insights tailored to the realities of today’s business environment.
The Quarterly Business Forum is part of Fidelity Bank’s broader commitment to the growth of Nigeria’s SME sector.
It would be recalled that recently, Fidelity Bank emerged the winner of the Development Bank of Nigeria (DBN) Service Ambassadors Award for the Highest Impact on MSMEs Accessing Credit for the First Time, in recognition of its commitment to deepening financial inclusion, improving access to credit and supporting enterprise growth.
Through initiatives that provide access to knowledge, capacity-building opportunities, tailored financial services, and strategic business networks, the Bank continues to support entrepreneurs in building stronger and more sustainable businesses.
