Nnena Uchenna, a student of O2 Academy who attended the Summit had this to say: “It was very impactful. It was basically about coming to learn more, about how Tech is played in the industry and how we should adopt more of technology to grow our brands and not just look at it in the space of Bitcoin and the rest of them. We can surely learn how to adopt them and collaborate with them more to push our markets out there”

“My biggest takeaway from this summit is to go and read more and have more in-depth learning and understanding of how Tech plays. I love Tolulope Adedeji’s presentation, where she got to show videos on how women came up with so many ideas to change the world. Her knowledge was impactful. That was my best, I’m grateful” “All I will say to Marketing Edge is to keep doing the good work. This kind of programmes brings ideas, brings more knowledge to life on branding and advertising in general, people get to know the what to dos and know the areas to improve. This is very interesting. I look forward to coming here again in 2023 to learn more”

Ayomide an intern at Insight Publicis who got invited by a friend said it was her first time at a MARKETING EDGE event and she was full of praise for the event, “It was interesting, it was entertaining, it was challenging because I was just looking at those people talking and I wished that I was up there in the marketing and advertising world. It’s a very interesting one to be in. Technology has changed everything, we are now in a digitalized world, evolving and creating content, interesting and impactful content for people to see them”

“My biggest takeaway is to go work on myself that Yes I have to be up there one day, so yes that’s my biggest takeaway”

Gabriel a newbie in the IMC Industry found the Summit very impactful and insightful “It was great and enlightening. I gained a lot of things for someone like me, who is new to the field because it is not a field that I’m fully well grasped in so it was enlightening. I feel like this is something a lot of people should come to, people that need to meet experts in this field and learn from them”

“I want to thank MARKETING EDGE for this opportunity. I hope it’s an event that grows, I hope it is an event that continues to bring people of this amount of vast knowledge to we younger ones to be able to learn and I just hope that everything will continue to move in the right direction”
