DALLAS, Texas — Global Impact Accelerator Corp. (GIAC) is set to host its highly anticipated inaugural GIAC Africa Impact Summit on April 10–11, 2026, at the prestigious Hilton Anatole Hotel in Dallas, Texas. This premier two-day experience will bring together a dynamic network of entrepreneurs, investors, business leaders, and change-makers committed to driving sustainable growth and innovation across Africa and its global diaspora.
Anchored in this year’s theme, “Turning Vision into Impact: Scaling Small Businesses, Unlocking Investments and Building Strategic Connections for Africa’s Future,” the summit is designed to catalyze meaningful dialogue, strategic partnerships, and tangible opportunities that extend beyond the event itself.
The summit will officially kick off on Friday, April 10 from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM with an exclusive networking mixer, welcoming both local and out-of-town attendees for an evening of curated connections and community building. A series of notable keynote speakers will present during the kick off mixer.
The experience will continue on Saturday, April 11, with an elegant and immersive gala evening beginning at 5:30 PM with a glamorous cocktail hour and red carpet experience, followed by a black-tie gala. The evening will unfold within a stunning Afrofuturism-inspired ballroom design, blending culture, innovation, and luxury. Guests will enjoy a world class chef-inspired dinner, music, and an elevated atmosphere curated to reflect the richness and future-forward vision of Africa.
Beyond the elegance and celebration, the GIAC Africa Impact Summit reflects the bold vision of its co-founders — Dr. Martin M. Kwende, Mr. Akwasi Peprah, and Dr. Eric T. Matey — who established GIAC to serve as a powerful ecosystem for intentional, forward-thinking professionals. Through its work, GIAC is committed to connecting capital, expertise, and opportunity to drive sustainable growth in emerging markets, creating pathways for entrepreneurs, investors, and service providers to thrive.
The organization has already demonstrated measurable impact, having awarded thousands of dollars in certified grants to emerging hospitality professionals in Nigeria, made possible through its robust network of vetted partners and industry leaders. This growing footprint underscores GIAC’s mission to translate vision into real, scalable outcomes.
