Africa’s Brain Bank, an organization committed to the unity of peoples on the African continent and the diaspora, is hosting its third annual Summit & Charity Ball on October 8 and 9, 2022 at the Atlanta Airport Marriott Hotel.
The upscale event will convene leaders and experts from various industries for important dialogue, networking, intercontinental business transactions, and to unite all people of African descent.
When Is Africa’s Brain Bank Summit & Charity Ball?
The event will start on Saturday, October 8th with the following schedule of events:
- ·Academic Symposium: 8:30 AM to 12:00PM
- Red Carpet: 5:30PM to 6:50PM
- Africa’s Brain Bank Summit: 7:00PM to 8:30PM
- Dinner and Ball: 8:30PM to 2:00AM
With Extraordinary growth taking place in Africa, 60% of the continent’s population under age 25, and the desire for Africans and Black Americans to bridge the gap and work together, there are plentiful opportunities for business and collaboration.
Established in 2018 by Founder and CEO, Rev. Pamela Fomunung, Africa’s Brain Bank is on a bold mission to eliminate Africa’s “brain drain,” which refers to the historic looting and exploitation of Africa’s people, talent, ideas and resources. To achieve this goal, the organization is creating a digital repository of Africa’s intellectual capital, brain power, and fostering the flow of business between people of African descent worldwide to elevate the continent and the diaspora.
“I am so excited about the fact that we are coming together as one. I view this as a big family reunion,” said. Rev. Fomunung.
“For so long our brain power has been scattered across the world, and now we can harness it from the comfort of our homes. We can deposit our intellectual property and make withdrawals. Think about the transactions you make through the bank. If you send a Zelle to somebody, you are transferring money. Now, imagine sending a Zelle of your expertise to somebody in Lagos or Cape Town without having to physically go there. That is what Africa’s Brain Bank is about.”
Speakers include Motown’s First A&R Man Sir William “Mickey” Stevenson, who was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in June of 2022 (worked with Marvin Gay, the Supremes, Stevie Wonder and other superstars), iconic Nollywood actor and attorney Richard Mofe-Damijo, Hon. Johnny Ford, former Mayor of Tuskegee, AL and Founder of the World Conference of Mayors, Doll Avant, founder and CEO of Aquagenuity, wealth strategist and award-winning insurance agent Douglas Eze, Ambassador Dr. Amina Smaila, Nigerian Consul General in Atlanta, Lisa Sylvester Acogny, Co-founder and Chair of International Relations for Knowledge-First International Academy, and several academic symposium speakers.
The powerful lineup will address critical issues facing the African continent, explore synergies, share the extraordinary opportunities that exist to do business and establish a presence in Africa, and provide pathways and guidance for those African diasporans who yearn to visit or relocate to the Motherland.
“Healthcare is a big issue, as we don’t have enough hospitals or healthcare facilities,” Rev. Fomunung said. “Other industries with major opportunities are in hotels, real estate, agriculture, finance, transportation, education and telecommunications. The opportunities are unlimited.”
Educators and students from various Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) will be present at the summit, including from Clark Atlanta University, Morehouse College, Morris Brown and more.

Ian has been downgraded to a tropical storm but is still capable of producing deadly winds and storm surge, weather experts said early Thursday. Along with battering Florida, the storm is still expected to impact parts of Georgia and South Carolina with strong winds and heavy rains over the next few days.
This article will tell you how Tropical Storm Ian is expected to impact Georgia as well as what steps you should take to stay safe in a major storm.
When Will Hurricane Ian Hit Georgia?
Weather experts predict that Tropical Storm Ian will move into Georgia on Friday afternoon into Saturday morning.
Coastal Georgia will bear the brunt of Hurricane Ian, including cities Brunswick and Savannah, which are likely to see waves of torrential rain and storm surge. While it will still be a major storm, Ian should shrink in size in strength by the time it hits the Peach State. This is mainly due to its weakening over land for a significant period of time. That doesn’t mean that Georgia is out of the woods though. Some areas will see flooding while others will only get wind sheer, including parts of North Georgia. The storm is expected to lap metro Atlanta, affecting some of its outer counties with wind and rain.
What Will Be Tropical Storm Ian’s Impact On Georgia?
While the ranges vary, weather forecasters say coastal Georgia could see anywhere from four to six inches of rain along with tropical-storm-like winds.
Here is Ian’s projected path according to National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration early Thursday.
Photo credit: NOAA Take These Safety Steps To Stay Safe In A Major Storm
In the event that a major storm hits Georgia, including metro Atlanta, there are some things you can do to prevent the worst of conditions from occurring.
Buy A Generator
Most appliance stores sell either whole-house or portable generators, which are sufficient for major storms and hurricanes.
Remember to never run a generator in an enclosed space. They generate deadly fumes that can kill you. Here are some top portable generators you can purchase.
Champion Power Equipment 100519 6250-Watt Open Frame Inverter
- DuroMax XP13000EH Dual Fuel Portable Generator
- Westinghouse WGen9500DF Dual Fuel Portable Generator
- DuroMax XP5500E Gas Powered Portable Generator
- Champion Power Equipment 201052 4750/3800-Portable Generator
Stock Up On Canned Goods
You’d be surprised how good some food in a can tastes when you’re starving. Hopefully, you never have to find out, but to be safe, it’s a good idea to have some canned goods stored for a rainy day.
Here are some food stuffs you should invest in:
Swanson Chicken & Dumplings W/ White & Dark Chicken Meat
- Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup
- Gatorade Variety Pack
- Canned French Style Green Beans
- Sardines in Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Homestyle Beef Stew
- Chicken of the Sea Canned Tuna
Have A Go-Bag Ready
When it’s time for you to flee your home, it can be very hectic trying to find the items you will think you need to take with you. That’s why it’s always a good idea to prepare a go-bag — a book sack or bag filled with your necessities — so that you can be on the move in a hurry.
What are some things to put in a go-bag?
- Flashlight
- Battery-Operated Radio
- Batteries
- Emergency Blanket
- MREs (Meals, Ready to Eat)
- Portable Tent
- First-Aid Kit
- Cash
Final Word
Although your emotions may run high during a storm, it’s very important that you stay level-headed and make safety of you and yours a priority.
Georgia doesn’t often get hurricanes, but they do happen from time to time.
Another key thing you can do is tell someone where you are. Don’t go in alone in a big storm. If you can communicate to someone ahead of time, before the storm, tell them where you’ll likely be; it will be a big help. The good thing that you should always remember is that storms pass!
