QEDNG Creative Powerhouse Summit Returns August 11 in Lagos
The second edition of the QEDNG Creative Powerhouse Summit will take place on August 11, 2026, in Lagos, organized by Mighty Media Plus. The event aims to move beyond conversations to tangible outcomes that strengthen Nigeria's $30 billion creative economy, which has grown through Nollywood, Afrobeats, and digital content creation.
The summit will feature keynote speeches, panel discussions, and curated sessions focusing on innovation, financing, growth opportunities, and the global positioning of Nigerian creative talent. According to founder Olumide Iyanda, it's designed as a 'meeting point for ideas, influence and execution' rather than just discussions.
The inaugural edition attracted industry leaders including filmmaker Kunle Afolayan, Mike Dada of AFRIMA, and representatives from the National Film and Video Censors Board. As Nigeria's creative sector expands globally while local frameworks struggle to keep pace, this summit could provide valuable connections and insights for creatives looking to advance their careers and businesses in the industry.
