Hello and welcome to our post-event blog! We recently hosted a successful networking event and wanted to share some highlights with you.

The event was held on March 31st, 2023, at the SME100 AFRICA rooftop Moloney Lagos. It was a five-hour event with a focus on connecting professionals from various industries and building meaningful relationships.

Attendees included professionals from industries such as finance, marketing, content creation and technology. The event kicked off with a brief welcome speech from the organizers, followed by an icebreaker activity to help attendees get to know each other which was conducted by ONECHANCE GAMES.

The keynote speaker was Deji Macaulay, a renowned tech guru and businessman who shared his insights on the topic “WHERE THE MONEY IS” and the importance of adapting to new technologies. His talk was inspiring and provided valuable takeaways for attendees. In addition to the keynote, there were several breakout sessions throughout the day. Topics ranged from Selling without selling by makeup guru and businesswoman Adeola Diadem (Diiadem), Third speaker Jayonair delivered a speech on “Content creation as a Financial Breakthrough”. The sessions were interactive and provided attendees with practical tips and tools to improve their marketing efforts.

The main event of the evening was a speed networking session. Attendees were paired up and given a set amount of time to introduce themselves and share their professional backgrounds and interests. The speed networking session was a huge success, with attendees exchanging business cards and making meaningful connections. Many attendees commented on how the structured format helped them break the ice and feel more comfortable approaching new people.

After the speed networking session, attendees were invited to stay and network informally over refreshments provided by SHAKESANDMORE COCKTAILS and POWERHORSE NIGERIA. This provided an opportunity for attendees to follow up with new connections and continue building relationships.

Overall, the event was a great success. Attendees left feeling energised and excited about the new connections they had made. We look forward to hosting more networking events like this in the future.
