The creative industry spans content creation, media, art and entertainment, music, fashion, design, photography animation, film, theatre and marketing etc.

Over the years, we have come to recognize the contribution of many amazing people to the growth of the creative economy.

It is against this backdrop that we introduce to you, Festival of Ideas.

Festival of Ideas is a gathering of creatives and innovators who are shaping the creative economy through creativity and entrepreneurial actions to share their story and define the next decade of African culture.

It is about telling the creative and inspiring stories of individuals and businesses that are making a real difference through artistry and advocacy.

It is also about unraveling these stories in a real way that will inspire positive action and celebrate the creative and innovative side of Nigerians.

They are making a real difference with their creativity, originality and ingenuity across diverse fields such content creators, influencers, social media experts, directors and entrepreneurs in entertainment and technology, etc.

The beauty of these interactions will be the visible participation of amazing minds. Most attendees are young and aspiring creative professionals and entrepreneurs who are set on exploring how to integrate ideas, enterprise, create strategy and technology that will bring about individual empowerment and national advancement.

"The real disruptors of the next decade won’t be companies, but people -creative entrepreneurs, opportunists who are transforming the global economy, developers, designers, marketers, sales people, business analysts, project managers, accountants, lawyers and other professionals scattered around the globe, connecting and working from anywhere to build businesses and solve problems everywhere“ - Andrew Nachison.

Festival of ideas affords a platform to forge new alliances and engender new collaborations among the emerging tribe of creatives.

Come listen to them share their remarkable stories and get some lessons!
