Against the backdrop of the transformation that the digital revolution has occasioned in citizen participation and democracy globally, fast-rising Lagos-based digital marketing agency, Mustardels Media, announces the fourth edition of the Lagos Digital Summit. Themed “Digital Media as a Tool for Nation Building,” the virtual event will converge prominent Nigerians from different sectors, on November 28, 2020, to proactively chart a sustainable path to harnessing the inherent potential in digital media.
Hosted in collaboration with Expoze Nigeria, Lagos Digital Summit, is an annual event conceptualised to optimise the immense potential of digital media for the advancement of the nation and its bourgeoning generation.
The happenings around the world this year in particular further underscores the need for the event, and the organisers remain resolute in their beliefs that technology and the digital revolution have an immense role to play in the growth of Nigeria.
Commenting on the announcement, the convener of Lagos Digital Summit, Wale Adetona, remarked, “We have witnessed the vital role digital media has played globally this year – from updates to providing relevant information in the ongoing battle against the pandemic, and citizens holding their governments accountable for policy decision and societal transformation.
There is no gainsaying the fact that with the recent developments in Nigeria, digital media is well established as a tool for socio-economic prosperity. One that must be deliberately deployed for us to maximise its potential. In light of these, and many other instances, we deemed it fit to centre our dialogue around this subject.”
