“The event also offers an extensive and holistic experience which aims to highlight the benefits of operating a purpose driven business instead of the usual run-of-the-mill traditional enterprise. Esteemed speakers include Dr Seye Kehinde, Ade Adeyemi, Tessy Zidon Peters, Adetola Okanlawon (MBA-IT), Olawunmi Ogunde.”
Commenting on the event, Tobi Odukoya, CEO of Birthing Purpose, said: “Most world changing innovations that have become multi-billion dollar products and services stemmed from wanting to solve a problem, and creating a solution that meets that specific need; that way many lives are touched by that single product or service.”
According to the organisers, the event will cater to 150 “passionate and budding entrepreneurs”.
