As Livespot marks a decade of excellence in the media, creative, and entertainment industries, Co-founder and Chief Creative Director, Darey Art Alade, attributed the company’s success to resilience, a shared vision, and teamwork in overcoming challenges.
In an interview with MARKETING EDGE on TV, Darey reflected on the journey that has brought Livespot360 to this milestone:
“Creative solutions, to us, transcend producing visually stunning work or pushing boundaries for the sake of it. It’s about connecting deeply with people, understanding their needs, and using creativity as a tool to make a real impact. People often see the exciting projects and fascinating outcomes of our collaborations with clients and partners,” he noted. “But after 10 years in this business, it’s clear we’ve faced our fair share of tough times as well. What made the difference was the calmness that comes with experience and having an incredible team that can push boundaries with intention and meaning. Together, we ensure that every project we take on leaves a lasting impression on both our clients and their audiences,” he added.
Firm in its commitment to its core values, Livespot360’s comprehensive, 360-degree approach continues to blend creative excellence with effectiveness.
According to Tiwa Medubi, Managing Director of Livespot360, these principles have not only steered the company through a decade of remarkable achievements but will also drive its continued success in today’s highly competitive landscape.
For over ten years, Livespot360 has consistently delivered cutting-edge creative solutions to global brands, crafting unforgettable experiences. Under the leadership of Deola and Darey Art Alade, the company has become synonymous with innovative experiential marketing, purpose-driven campaigns, and high-quality reality TV productions. It is also a trusted partner for local adaptations of global formats.
Their impressive portfolio includes projects like the Livespot X Festival, Entertainment Week Lagos, the 10th Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards, and high-profile premieres such as Water and Garri and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in Nigeria.
Livespot360’s success in adapting international formats to local culture is evident in projects like NBC/Universal/Showmax’s The Real Housewives of Lagos, which captured the essence of Nigerian culture and lifestyle, deeply resonating with audiences. Similarly, Last One Laughing Naija, Amazon’s first African original, showcased Livespot360’s expertise in creating content tailored to the Nigerian market, reaching top-trending status on Prime Video.
