FITCC: Fidelity Heads to Atlanta for 3rd Edition | ClipTV Online

Leading African financial institution, Fidelity Bank Plc, is set to hold the 3rd edition of its flagship market access platform, the Fidelity International Trade and Creative Connect (FITCC) Expo from September 18 to 20, 2025, at the Omni Atlanta Hotel at Centennial Park, Georgia, USA.

In a strategic move to deepen diaspora and transatlantic business linkages, Fidelity Bank is partnering with Amplify Africa, the organizers of AFRICON, the leading African diaspora business and culture summit in the United States. This collaboration brings together two powerful platforms committed to bridging African enterprise with global opportunity.

“Since 2022, when we hosted the maiden edition, FITCC has evolved beyond a platform for promoting Nigeria’s non-oil exports to become a veritable showcase of the immense value Nigeria has to offer the global market.

“As part of our commitment to developing platforms that promote economic growth, creativity, and sustainable trade both within Nigeria and internationally, we are pleased to announce the third edition of FITCC. Since 2022 when we hosted the inaugural edition, the FITCC expo has been at the heart of driving global market access for local businesses and I am delighted that this year we will be in the city of Atlanta, USA,” stated Dr Nneka Onyeali-Ikpe,OON, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity Bank Plc.

Following the success of previous editions in London and Houston, which collectively generated a consolidated deal pipeline exceeding US$500 million, FITCC Atlanta 2025 will convene over 100 Nigerian exporters, alongside U.S. buyers, investors, policy stakeholders, and diaspora-led business networks.

The expo will spotlight strategic sectors including agriculture, consumer-packaged goods, energy transition minerals, fashion, beauty, and the broader creative economy. Programming highlights include business exhibitions, B2B matchmaking, policy dialogues, diaspora investment panels, and curated workshops focused on expanding Nigeria’s access to global markets.

FITCC 2025 is expected to attract over 3,000 participants, including development finance institutions, chambers of commerce, trade facilitation agencies, and multinational corporations. The event is also aligned with ongoing government-led efforts to expand U.S.–Nigeria trade and investment under emerging bilateral frameworks.
