The maiden edition of Leverage Conference took place on Wednesday, 14th of October 2015 and I am still excited at the success of the Conference. It was my first major event and honestly I was so nervous all through the night preceding the conference.
It's a new initiative by me and I intend to continue every year. If you still don't understand what leverage conference is all about, visit the official website at www.leverageng.com.
The conference focus for this year was social media and branding. I was looking forward to informing the students of Lagos State University of the power of social media for their personal brand, and also inspire them on how to be unique and original with their businesses.
It was really inspiring as Michael Okeje, Marketing lead of Jobberman.com and Sisi Yemmie shared amazing stuffs with us all.
I was scared of the turnout at the beginning of the program but at the end, we recorded over 300 persons.
The audio recording of the event would be released very soon for ordering. Stay tuned to this blog.
Below are some of the event photos:
