Dear Creative Enterpreneur,

The Creative Entrepreneurs Association of Nigeria was established to incorporate the Creative industries in Nigeria in line with the recommendations of the British Council, United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and United Nations Conference on Trade And Development (UNCTAD) to help accelerate sectorial growth and development.

The Creative Entrepreneurs Association of Nigeria (CEAN) with support of the British Council, Nigeria would be having the duo of Messers Tunde Kehinde and Raphael Afaedor as our Speakers/Host at this month’s Creative Enterprise Sessions in Lagos; our monthly Interactive Mentoring Meetup in Lagos and Abuja for Creative Entrepreneurs. As Speakers/Host; they would also be expected to provide light refreshments and non-alcoholic drinks for entertaining participants.

As Speakers, they would be sharing on the topic “Building Partnership That Works: The Jumia Story.” In this capacity, they would advice and provide practical insight on this topic to the audience of creative young entrepreneurs.

This meetup usually holds every last Wednesday of the month.

The monthly Mentoring Session is designed to help creative entrepreneurs build skills, expand networks, and find markets.
CEAN believes that
• Networking is an essential skill for all business people, but especially for entrepreneurs.
• The strong association between the entrepreneur as a person and his or her business demands that entrepreneurs get out into the world and create and maintain business relationships.
• Networking builds social capital for entrepreneurs
• Creating channels to share business know-how is critical to helping more business owners succeed.
• Sharing business knowledge among entrepreneurs contributes to the stability and growth of their businesses, and encourages innovation and resourcefulness.


Venue: British Council Conference room, 20 Thompson Drive, Ikoyi.
