Emiralty Africa to Host ‘Emiralty Connect 1.0’ Summit in Lagos
Lagos is set to host a major business and leadership gathering as Emiralty Africa prepares to stage its flagship event, Emiralty Connect 1.0, at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Ikeja on May 14.
The summit, themed “From Scar to Shine: Reflections on Struggles, Breakthrough and Impacts,” is designed to explore the journey from early challenges to long-term success across business, governance, and the creative industry.
Organisers say the conference will focus on a “Three S” framework Scar (struggle), Spark (breakthrough), and Shine (legacy) aimed at highlighting real-life success stories and lessons from industry leaders.
The keynote address will be delivered by Kazeem Olayemi Odeyeyiwa, while a special guest session will feature Farida Ahmed.
The event will be hosted by actor Adeniyi Johnson and media personality Olamilekan Abegunde, who are expected to bring entertainment and engagement to the programme.
A key highlight is the Creative Industry Panel titled “Turning Passion into Power,” featuring industry figures including Femi Adebayo, Mercy Aigbe, Bukky Wright, and Libra TV CEO Olalekan Wasiudeen.
The business panel will be moderated by Lanre Basamta and will feature discussions on the role of media in scaling startups, while the governance panel, moderated by Moji Delano, will examine leadership and public service accountability.
Speaking ahead of the event, Idris Olakunle Bello of Emiralty Africa said the summit aims to bridge the gap between private struggles and public success, encouraging entrepreneurs and creatives to transform challenges into lasting impact.
The event is scheduled to begin at 10:00 AM and is expected to attract professionals from business, media, governance, and entertainment sectors.
