Highlights of the launch of I’m A Graduate, Now What? in Lagos.

Monday 27th November 2017 witnessed the official launch of I’m A Graduate, Now What? The Audio Experience.

The aim was to showcase the journey and milestones that have been achieved during the course of putting the project together. And clearly outline the next steps to actualizing the desired expectations with the Audio Experience and its associated concepts.

The event was replete with rich conversations from an engaging panel of industry experts which included; Misan Rewane, one of the narrators on the audio book project, and CEO of WAVE Academy; Ese Oraka, also a narrator on the audio book, and a founding partner at Adelphi; Helen Paul, an entertainer and also a narrator on the Audio Experience; and Femi Aderibigbe, Managing Director, Virtual Media Networks.

Guests had the opportunity to listen to some of the chapters during the listening session. And were motivated to graciously give in support of the project and everything that will be achieved in the near future.

This is the end of the beginning of an adventure. And we are immensely grateful to everyone who has been with us through the highs, the lows, and lessons we learned.
Thank you for supporting a worthy cause. Feel free to plug-in in anyway you think will help. Let’s tackle unemployment together!
