The African Achievers Awards is one of the most prestigious Africa and Africans-focused awards, which recognizes exceptional Africans for their contribution to the growth and development of Africa

Organizers of the annual African Achievers Awards have announced the schedule for this year’s edition. The 11th edition of the awards ceremony will take place at the Kensington Palace, London, the United Kingdom, on December 10, 2021. There will be an International Colloquium on December 9, 2021, preceding the awards, to hold at University of Cambridge, Hosted by  Lord Simon Woolley, Master of  Homerton College, Cambridge University.

The theme for this year’s International Summit and Awards ceremony at the African Achievers Awards 2021 is “Maximizing Diaspora Investments for Sustainable Development in Africa.” On the choice of this year’s theme, Dr. Tonye Rex idaminabo, Chief Executive Officer of the African Achievers Awards, stated that "There is a need to tap into African diaspora expertise and resources to accelerate the process of realizing impressive economic growth and sustainable social transformation in Africa. This year's summit and awards ceremony, therefore, provides a platform for industry leaders in Africa to converge, and discuss strategies and develop a blueprint on how to mobilize diaspora investment opportunities for Africa."
