Aminou SAKA :
When he founded SERT in 1979, Saka Aminou only had in mind
to create a bridge between the North and the South. More than
20 years later, he has succeeded beyond expectations. Not
only has he created a solid enterprise, but he has also taken
a large part in reducing under-development in Africa. A man
from a twin culture (African and Quebecois), he has succeeded
in weaving multiple narrow links between the Belle Province
and the Black continent. As a real maestro, surrounded by
a devoted and competent team, Aminou Saka has turned SERT
into a compulsory gateway for exchanges between Africa and
Quebec. The numerous projects he has initiated and brought
to a good end with remarkable success make him a privileged
resource person for both businessmen from Quebec and African
communities. Not only is he the chairperson of a sizable company,
but also a conveyor belt between two worlds that have been
ignoring one another for a long time. In his own way, Aminou
Saka is a visionary and a pioneer who has opened so many roads
and routes, at the benefit of Africa and Quebec.
