Signature Summit (The Redo): Branding & Digital Marketing; cornerstone of enterprise boom


Taking lessons from other parts of the world, Nigerians could make a unique headway of their own to strengthen the country's economy by identifying entrepreneurship as a window to shifting focus from government to the people. Having for the longer period made inputs to the instrument of government without concurrent gains, a strategic point has come to start considering and channeling efforts towards the alternative.

The Signature Summit lays fundamental procedural groundwork in that direction - to  which those who attended its first edition on the 24th of February 2017, at the Cooperative Hall, Obafemi Awolowo University will attest.

Signature NG, a creative, and multimedia (visual communication) agency, upon inquiry into mystery behind enterprise failure and decline in patronage presents an intervention in the form of The Signature Summit on a score - to turn the tide.

Entrepreneurs take their feet off the pedal for reasons they would describe as ranging from limited reserve in capital, sterling ideas, to the right motivation. They however give little or no thought to the opportunities implicit in branding and digital marketing which may indeed offer solutions in surmounting faced challenges. It is note worthy that sufficient take-off funds, ideas, and motivation do not necessarily guarantee sustainable success in business, hence the need to look through new lenses.

The Signature Summit, rather than thread a familiar path; raise funds or discuss the latest 'profitable' ventures, aims at fraughting the participant with practical guidelines to marketing across several media and 'correct packaging' to ensure business ideas are efficiently translated into reality.

The redo edition of The Signature Summit with an objective to, among others, consolidate impacts made by the first edition is classified into conference and workshop sessions and set to hold  Friday 24th and Saturday 25th November at Ajose Lecture Theatre, Obafemi Awolowo University,  Ile Ife.

Speakers expected in attendance at the event include Author, Business Coach, Business Development Expert and strategist, Tale Alimi, Brand Strategist, Author and Digital Marketing consultant, Deola Kayode, Art Director at Fericool Studios,  Ogunkunle Tunde, New Media expert and CEO of Media Panache, Timilehin Bello and the Digital PR Consultant at The Robert Taylor Media, Esther Odia.

Tickets are on sale at #1000 (individual pass), #2500 (work group of 3), and available at Syntax, A&G (Thrillhouse) &  5viers. Orders and further inquiries can be made through 08134857106 or signaturesng@yahoo.com

The story of how Nigeria’s census figures became weaponized - Feyi Fawehinmi

By Feyi Fawehinmi The story of Nigeria’s 1962 census never gets old. Southern politicians seeking to end the north’s dominance of Nigerian politics decided that the only way to do it was through the census. Population figures at the time determined not only parliamentary representation but also revenue allocation and employee distribution in the civil service. In May 1962, the first census under an independent Nigerian government began. There had been a frenzy of mobilization by politicians in the south of the country using pamphlets, radio, schools, churches and mosques. Although the final results were not made public, the preliminary results were quite clear as to what had happened: the north’s population had gone up from 16.5 million in the last census in 1952 to 22.5 million, an increase of 30%. But in some parts of the east, the population had increased by up to 200% and more than 70% in general. The west also reported an increase of 70%. What the preliminary results showed...

Concerns grow over Alexis Sanchez and Paul Pogba's mental state at Manchester United

Telegraph UK Jose Mourinho is facing a serious battle to revitalise his star signings Alexis Sanchez and Paul Pogba amid growing concerns about their state of mind at Manchester United as Zlatan Ibrahimovic quit the club to join Los Angeles Galaxy in the United States.

Concerns over Sanchez and Pogba came as Mourinho launched yet another defence of his reign at United and brand of football and LA Galaxy prepared to announce on Friday that Ibrahimovic has signed a two-year deal to join the Major League Soccer outfit after his short spell at Old Trafford w...

Game Of Thrones Finale Breaks Record Again

The finale of the 7th season of HBO hit show “Game of Thrones” has again broken the record to become HBO’s most watched show ever. The episode “The Dragon and the Wolf” was seen by 12.1 million viewers, according to Nielsen. HBO said when views from streaming service HBO Go and its stand-alone HBO Now app are included, that number rises to a whooping 16.5 million viewers. The 12.1 million viewers is a 36 percent improvement from last season finale which was seen by 8.9 million people. The previous record for the most watched HBO show belonged to, fittingly, episode 5 of the 7th season Game of Thrones, which was seen by 10.7 million viewers. HBO added that this season averaged 31 million viewers per episode once all live, time-shifted, on-demand, and streaming views are included. This is another record set by the show.
