F10 International (Fantastic 10), the first socio-economic group established in Cross River State in 2015, has officially relaunched its activities with a strategic meeting held in Calabar, marking the beginning of a renewed vision for greater impact, collaboration, and socio-economic development.

The relaunch brought together members who travelled from Lagos and Abuja to join others in Calabar, where the group was originally founded over a decade ago. The gathering reflected the enduring bond among members and celebrated the remarkable success stories of individuals who have excelled in business, public service, entrepreneurship, media, and leadership.

Since its inception, F10 International has remained a unique network of accomplished young entrepreneurs, opinion moulders, socialites, chief executive officers, and political leaders committed to supporting one another while contributing meaningfully to the development of Cross River State and Nigeria.

Members of F10 International include:

During the meeting, members reviewed the group’s newly redesigned logo and deliberated extensively on strategic investment opportunities, empowerment initiatives, members’ welfare, and the legal incorporation of F10 International as part of its long-term vision for institutional growth and sustainability.

Speaking at the meeting, members reaffirmed their collective commitment to leveraging their diverse expertise, influence, and resources to create opportunities that will empower young people, strengthen entrepreneurship, and promote sustainable socio-economic development across Cross River State and beyond.

The day’s activities concluded with a karaoke hangout at Ketchup and an after-party at Romaan Premium Lounge, providing members with an opportunity to reconnect, celebrate friendships, and strengthen the unity that has defined the F10 family since its establishment.

As F10 International embarks on this new chapter, the group remains committed to building a stronger network of leaders, innovators, and changemakers dedicated to excellence, collaboration, and impactful service
