Imagine a room full of Business men and women, with the best of Nigeria’s creative minds when it comes to History, Culture and Arts?
Inviting you all to the 1st Nigerian Cultural Trade Show on Thursday 2nd October 2014 at the Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos. From 10 am to 10 pm the one day event offers the unique opportunity to take the participants on a journey through Nigeria’s tremendous cultural wealth
The event themed “business meets culture” gives the business community the opportunity to meet with the next voice, the next face, the next artist about to hit the market both home and away.
The first week of October, Nigeria will be celebrating its 54th year of independence, and Germany its 25th year of the fall of the Berlin Wall and its reunification. Therefore, ahead of the two national days of both countries, we decided to underline the positive image of Nigeria by creating an event dedicated to the cultural variety of this country.
Micheal Derus, the Consul General of the Federal Republic of Germany, Lagos and Disun Holloway, the Honorable Commissioner of the Lagos State Ministry of Tourism & Intern-Governmental Relations are taken round and introduced to the Exhibitors. Following the tour, they will deliver a speech.
