“APO Group is also the Official Strategic Public Relations Partner of the African Union at the Expo 2020 Dubai, the Pan-African public relations agency of FIFA, the governing body of football/soccer, the Pan-African public relations agency of the NBA; the Pan-African public relations agency of the Basketball Africa League (BAL);  the Main Official Sponsor of World Rugby’s African association, Rugby Africa, the governing body of rugby in Africa; the Official Partner of iconic French Football Club Olympique de Marseille’s African programme, ‘OM Africa,’” he pointed out.

During his time as CEO at APO Group, Nicolas said, he has been growing the company as well as serving and advising hundreds of multinational companies to invest and conduct business in Africa. As Chairman, he is focusing on delivering high-level counsel for the company’s clients and developing his investment fund dedicated to Africa.
