Speaking to the participants, Mbanefo said: “The world is changing rapidly, and if you are not evolving, the train will pass you.

“It is important you understand the bottom line rule of ROI (Relevance, Originality and Impact) that gives you the ROI (Return On Investment)”, he stated, while adding that a beautiful advert without impact would become a beautiful nonsense.

On his part, the Managing Director of Ideas House, Mr. Kehinde Salami spoke on the need for more thinking while highlighting the importance of passion in the creative industry.

“Africa has 17 percent of the world’s population and less than 1 percent of world patents come from Africa. Africa has become the continent of doers, not thinkers. So we have to change our perspective”, he disclosed.

In his speech, the team lead Abdullahi Ahmed call on stakeholders in the integrated marketing communication industry to support in the sustainability of talents in the industry in order to prevent and groom students who will grow to be future brand problem solvers.

He further that Future Brand idol is not an annual event and series of activities has been mapped out to afford students access to practical knowledge about their courses via interaction with professionals through trainings, seminars and workshops.

Addressing the participants, the Managing Director of WithoutABox PR, Theodore Nyingifa stated that one of the concerns in the creative industry is talents, adding that young creative talents should stop trying to impress but calm down to see what they can offer.
