Participants at a past edition 

Dozens of top Nigerian media executives will converge at the Academy Suites, Abeokuta, Ogun State, from May 5-6 for the third edition of the Nigerian Media Leaders’ Summit, organized by The Journalism Clinic (TJC). 

The summit will focus on how media organizations can transform their connections with audiences and communities into sustainable value, especially in the rapidly evolving age of artificial intelligence

In a statement by the Founder/Director, The Journalism Clinic, Mr Taiwo Obe, around 60 media leaders including newspaper publishers, editors-in-chief, TV and radio chief executives, general managers, directors of programmes and editors are expected at the Clinic’s 3rd Nigerian Media Leaders’ Summit.

The high-profile event is being held with the sponsorship, support and partnership of the NLNG, Lagos and Ogun State Governments, Central Bank of Nigeria, Nigerian Railway Corporation, Fidelity Bank and Polaris Bank.

Others are: The Punch, The Nation, The Cable and Business Day newspapers.

The rest are: the Newspaper Proprietors Association of Nigeria, Innovation Media Consulting Group, Real Pharmaceuticals, Academy Suites and Penpushing Media.

“Besides the enriching intellectual engagements,” states Obe, “a major outcome of last year’s edition was the formation, based on one of the speakers’ presentation titled, WHERE’S THE MONEY, of the Innovative Media Partners Cooperative Multi-purpose Society (IMPCMS).”

Obe adds: “A major highlight of the forthcoming edition will be the OWNERS’ FORUM where five media leaders - Frank Aigbogun, publisher Business Day; Joseph Adeyeye, CEO/Editor-in-Chief, Punch Newspapers; Toun Okewale Sonaiya, CEO WFM 91.7FM, Nigeria’s only women’s radio; Betty Dibiah Akeredolu-Ale, CEO Branama TV, Nigeria’s first television station targeting children; and Mr Musikilu Mojeed, COO/Editor-in-Chief, Premium Times, will share insights and peculiarities on audience engagement.

”Tolu Ogunlesi, a former Presidential aide, will moderate this segment. “It is an occasion for the leaders to square up to their markets for enduring prosperity, particularly in the age of artificial intelligence,” Obe stressed.
