MIPAD recognizes Sand Mba Kalu as one of the Most Influential Global Top 100 Honorees in export and international trade

Sand Mba-Kalu, the Executive Director of Africa International Trade and Commerce Research (AITCR), has been recognized as one of the Most Influential Global Top 100 Honorees in the Export and International Trade Edition by the Most Influential People of African Descent (MIPAD).

The Export and International Trade Edition highlights individuals who have demonstrated excellence in promoting and advancing trade, aligning with the goals of AfCFTA.

The AITCR team is proud to have Sand Mba-Kalu as a leader because he has been extremely instrumental in promoting international trade and evidence based trade policy across Africa and this recognition will reinforce his commitment to use trade and research as tools for Africa development.

“I am deeply honored to be recognized by MIPAD as one of the Most Influential Global Top 100 Honorees in Export and International Trade. This acknowledgement is not only a personal achievement but also a reflection of the collective efforts of the entire AITCR team,” said Sand Mba-Kalu.

The Most Influential People of African Descent (MIPAD) identifies high achievers of African descent in public and private sectors from all around the world to observe the International Decade for People of African Descent, proclaimed by United Nation’s General Assembly resolution 68/237 from 2015 to 2024. MIPAD’s mission underscores the significance of this recognition and the global impact of Sand Mba-Kalu’s work in the export and international trade sector.
