Who We Are
The African Diaspora Corporation (ADC) is a forward-thinking organization dedicated to promoting economic growth, sustainable development, and investment opportunities across Africa. With its headquarters in the UK and operational presence in Nigeria, the U.S., and Switzerland, ADC connects the African continent with its global diaspora. Through innovation, collaboration, and empowerment, ADC leverages global expertise and resources to unlock Africa’s full potential.
ADC focuses on key areas such as diaspora-led investments in sectors like real estate, healthcare, agriculture, insurance, education, and security. The organization also provides financial advisory, valuation, and deal structuring services to attract sustainable investments. In addition, ADC supports affordable housing, modern agriculture, and educational initiatives to improve living standards across Africa. By strengthening connections between Africans abroad and their home countries, ADC ensures the diaspora plays a vital role in Africa’s development journey.
Diaspora remittances significantly impact Nigeria’s economy, contributing billions of dollars annually. Between 2015 and 2022, over $168 billion was remitted, with 2024 alone seeing a near doubling of inflows compared to the previous year. With projections for 2025 aiming at $1 billion in monthly remittances, the role of the diaspora continues to be crucial for economic stability and growth.
Partnering with ADC provides the Nigerian government and other African Countries with strategic benefits, including increased foreign direct investment, economic diversification beyond oil, job creation, and enhanced healthcare and social services. ADC also promotes digital innovation and security solutions to foster a safer, more advanced society.
Through its conferences and networks, ADC engages the diaspora to contribute their skills, knowledge, and capital for national and continental development.
