5 Reasons Why You Should Register For NECLive8

For the past seven years, NECLive has run as an intensive full day, nine-hour event featuring powerful panel sessions, insights from industry leaders and critically innovative conversations. However for 2020, a new programme format has now been introduced which features various events, activities and experiences over a three-day period.

NECLive will hold at the Landmark Center, Lagos on Wednesday, April 22, 2020 from 10am while the NECLive concert will take place at the same venue from 5pm the same day. Satellite events will hold on Thursday and Friday in various parts of Lagos.

Here are five reasons you should register for this year’s event and not miss it:

1. NECLive will feature insightful presentations from notable personalities

The theme for the event: “Building The Future”, will explore various ways of maximizing the potential and impact of recent strides in distribution, cinemas, events, promotions, exhibitions, productions and festivals, and how stakeholders can erect the infrastructure necessary to build the desired future for Nigeria’s creative and entertainment industry.
