The Malawi Roundtable has recognised Press Corporation, Standard Bank, Old Mutual Malawi, and Illovo Sugar Malawi for their significant contributions to Malawi’s development.
According to Harry Chima, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Malawi Roundtable, these firms have demonstrated a long-term perspective on national development, which is crucial for achieving set goals.
Illovo Sugar Malawi’s CEO, Lekani Katandula, expressed optimism that Malawi can attain its goals before 2063 through collaborative efforts from citizens, development partners, NGOs, and public and private sector players.
However, Katandula emphasised the need for sound governance structures and eradication of corruption and illegal activities to leverage public and private sector strengths.
This year’s roundtable theme, “Building Malawi: Modernise, Reshape and Grow,” highlights the importance of strategic partnerships and responsible practices in driving national growth.
