ouuuffff!!!!!! What a year 2024 has been 🔥 . It started off great, but as life plays out, came with a few challenges as I hunted down new and in-depth knowledge about animation and how it works. An opportunity like this was one of the sources of knowledge I gained this year 🙌 . "The 10-Day Animation Masterclass", a first of its kind masterclass that impacted creatives with new and existing information about how the business side of the animation industry works in Nigeria, and abroad. It was organized by The Nest Innovation Technology Park Ltd and empowered by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH ,GIZ Nigeria & ECOWAS ,Nigerian-German Centre for Jobs Migration and Reintegration (NGC) and The FEDERAL MINISTRY OF LABOUR AND EMPLOYMENT I was privileged to have been selected as part of the participants, and got the chance to listen and learn from industry professionals with years of experience in their fields, sharing their insights and knowledge they've acquired so far about the art and business side of animation ✨ . I would love to thank Michael Oscar Esio ,Martin E. ,Omoyefe Majoroh , Ayodele Elegba and David Victorious™ for their interactive lectures and efforts in demystifying a lot of the things i didn't know, and offering more clarity on what i already knew. This was definitely something I'll love to be a part of again 👏 .

2024, I was on the road. Started in January and did 🇺🇸 🇳🇱 🇫🇮 🇨🇭 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇨🇦🇬🇧 by today 31st of December. It would have been more work speaking about what we do The Nest Innovation Technology Park Ltd and creating more opportunities for African Founders but lost a core part of my life, Peter. Going full beast mode 2025……. And it would be rewarding. I will also be posting more😎. Enjoy my 60 seconds pitch. Special thanks to Marco M. for the invite to Africa Impact Festival in Berlin and Elisha Olukanni for recording this. 🎥 credit. #founders #entrepreneurship #startups #marketoppourtunities #talent #Skillsdevelopment
