Business Social

Expo Jamaica 2025 was a remarkable celebration of Jamaican culture, innovation, and enterprise. As the premier trade show in the English-speaking Caribbean, the expo, held over four days (April 3-6), not only showcased the richness of our local heritage and talent but also served as a powerful platform for global brands to connect with the Jamaican market. Among the standout moments was the highly anticipated unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra — made possible through a strategic partnership between Digicel, Samsung, and Smart Mobile Solutions (SMS).

Business Social recaps scenes from the expo.
