Chuks Ibechukwu is a development financier and lawyer specialising in project and infrastructure financing in developing countries, particularly in Africa and the Middle East. With nearly two decades of experience at global law firms and the International Finance Corporation, he is now a partner at Nigerian law firm Olaniwun Ajayi, where he launched their London international practice. Chuks wrote Imported to inspire the next generation of African leaders and spark conversations about retaining more value within the continent. He hopes the book encourages practices that drive African enterprises to participate in value chains and position Africa as a global exporter of value.
