The second day of the QNET Abuja Expo drew a massive turnout of young entrepreneurs from various countries, transforming the Myra Event Centre into a vibrant hub of innovation, product demonstrations and cross-border networking.

The gathering, one of the largest in recent months for young business enthusiasts in the city, offered participants a rare opportunity to experience QNET’s newest products first-hand, hear inspiring success stories and connect with fellow entrepreneurs exploring the direct-selling industry.

Leading the product showcase was Bernhard Gaksch, QNET’s Category Manager and Global Trainer, who introduced attendees to an expanded lineup of lifestyle, wellness and personal care offerings. These included EDG3 Plus, the company’s glutathione-support supplement; Prospark, its fluoride-free toothpaste; the Swiss-made CIMIER QNETCITY watch assembled in Switzerland by QNET’s luxury partner CIMIER; and nutritional and weight-management products from the LifeQode BELITE 123 range. Throughout the session, participants moved from booth to booth, testing products and engaging directly with trainers who explained the science, craftsmanship and intended benefits behind each item.

A major highlight of the day was an extended interview with Professor Abiodun Humphrey Adebayo, former Vice-Chancellor and current Director of Research at Covenant University, who serves on the QNET Scientific Advisory Board. He said the board’s role is to validate QNET’s products to ensure they are suitable for human use and meet quality standards, adding that the expo demonstrated the breadth of the company’s offerings, from household items and educational tools to luxury watches and the Amezcua wellness range.

Professor Adebayo said the direct-selling model continues to grow steadily in Nigeria because it connects products directly to consumers without interference from middlemen or fraudsters. He acknowledged that challenges exist but noted that the sector has become more structured and credible over time.

Providing further insight, he discussed his team’s research into the Amezcua Bio Disc 3, which has been the focus of several scientific studies.

One of those studies, published in the journal Scientific African, examined how the disc restructures water through Amezcua Resonance Technology. Tests were carried out using water collected from rainfall, branded bottled water, laboratory-prepared samples and other sources. These samples were placed on the disc for varying durations, ranging from 30 minutes to 48 hours. According to him, the restructured water showed improved cellular hydration, reduced sodium levels, increased potassium, and lowered microbial content including E. coli and coliform organisms. He explained that while the Bio Disc is not a replacement for standard purification systems, the findings suggest it can enhance water quality and reduce microbial load.

He also revealed results from ongoing studies involving popular local drinks such as palm wine, kunu, tiger nut drink, zobo and malt beverages.

“Structured samples showed better mineral stability, higher electrical conductivity and significantly reduced microbial content. In one instance, a malt drink sample containing slight microbial presence showed complete reduction in microbial load after restructuring.

“Another study looked at the impact of structured water on catfish farming. Over a 50-day period, fish grown in water treated with the Bio Disc recorded higher weight gains, lower microbial exposure and more favourable water conditions including improved dissolved oxygen. These findings suggest that the Bio Disc can enhance growth conditions in aquaculture environments by reducing harmful microbial presence and improving water quality.”

Commenting on affordability, he said, “Products such as the Chi Pendant 4 and Bio Disc 3 are built to last up to 30 years, making them long-term investments for individuals who understand their health and economic value.”

He added that many QNET products have gone through relevant regulatory reviews in Nigeria, particularly nutritional and beverage-related items, and that more certifications are ongoing.

The atmosphere at the Myra Event Centre remained energetic throughout the day as participants exchanged ideas, explored business prospects and interacted with trainers and advisory board members. Many attendees described the event as enlightening, highlighting the combination of product education, scientific explanations and entrepreneurial exposure. As interest in direct selling continues to grow among young Nigerians, QNET says it hopes to expand platforms like the Abuja Expo to equip more people with knowledge, tools and access to global business opportunities.
