🏆 Each year, we only offer one award at AviaDev Africa. It is the Ato Girma Wake Lifetime Achievement Award for an outstanding contribution to the industry. It is nominated by and voted for by the amazing AviaDev advisory board. Our previous recipients include: ✈️ 2017. Ato girma wake ✈️ 2018. Raphael Kuuchi ✈️ 2019. Chris Zweigenthal ✈️ 2021. Adefunke Adeyemi ✈️ 2022 Sanjeev Gadhia ✈️ 2023 Rodger Foster Joao joins this esteemed list and will discuss his life and times live on stage together with Ato Girma and Rodger. I am personally delighted and remember my first interaction with Joao Pó Jorge. He was warm, engaged in our mission and supportive, which was much needed in the tough early days. Over the years, he has become a friend, not only because he knows the best spots for prawns in Maputo 😄🦐 I know many others will share similar stories and support this recognition by the industry. Congrats Joao #Africa #Aviation #Mozambique #AviaDev
