Accorsing to Afe, in line with the mood and of the nation, “we are looking at the role of ethics and marketing in nation-building. That is our theme for this year. 

Last year we talked about marketing and tech, but this year understanding that we are on the cusp of change and believe in the nation, we want to speak on how marketing as a profession and ethics, comes to play in building the nation that we have all dreamt of.

“Our conferences are filled with not just panels and keynote conversations, but also the opportunity for our associates and participants to network, share ideas, and find out more. We have on board academicians, stakeholders in the marketing space, entertainment and other areas of business endeavor.”

Speaking on the collaboration with CIM, the president, NIMN, Mr. Idorenyen Enang, said: “as an institute, the currency of the future seats in collaborations and strategic partnerships have become a top priority for us and to get the best for our members it can only be through a global affiliation.

“Late last year, we opened the conversation with the Chartered Institute of Marketing CIM, and we are just about to sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that would border around cross-ventilation and cross-pollination. This would enhance collaboration.”
