Business experts have identified integrity, positioning, discipline, technology and faith as the tools needed by entrepreneurs to benefit from the enormous opportunities and potentials inherent in Lagos and the entire country.

Speaking at the just concluded Wealth Summit 2023, themed: “The Real Money of Lagos”, speakers, including renowned Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, Olumide Emmanuel, Sunday Olorunsheyi, and Wisdom Ezekiel took turns to help attendees gain comprehensive knowledge and expertise about wealth creation.

The speakers who equipped them with the tools necessary to thrive in the dynamic financial landscape provided an unrivalled platform for participants to be exposed to unique real estate investment opportunities, strategies, and practical advice on how to leverage the region’s immense potential.

The keynote speaker, Pastor Ashimolowo, emphasised the importance of integrity, positioning, discipline, technology, and faith in achieving financial success.

The Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) founder, benchmarked his session on: ‘The 9Rs of Revolutionary Wealth Creation’, and asserted that the power of land ownership remained a key secret to creating wealth without effort.

Ashimolowo said, “Land is the basis of all wealth, the heritage of the wise, the thrifty and the prudent.”

It is the silent partner of many thousands of successful men and women, and it grows and increases in value through countless days. Land is the foundation of banks, a producer of food, and the basis of all worth throughout the world. Yet, land appears so common that thousands, unthinking and unknowing, pass it by.”

On his part, Dr Emmanuel, a renowned serial entrepreneur, and real estate trailblazer, captivated the audience with his expertise in building businesses from the ground up.

Emmanuel who spoke on ‘The Importance of Networking and Collaboration in Wealth Creation’, stressed, “there are no generational curses, there are only consequences for generational choices.”
