Olufunbi Akinyosoye, is a certified entrepreneur, having trained at the Enterprise Development Centre of the Lagos Business School . She has put in over 20 years in the event management industry with passion and dogged determination for improving and contributing her quota to its growth.
It has opened us up to the perspective that anything is possible, there is no hard and fast road about it and some way a particular event has to go. It has broadened the horizon and has made our world smaller as a global village. For some of us in the industry, it is more than just the money, but to have a place to express ourselves to the world. If you have that burning passion, you have all it takes to start up a company like mine.
You don’t just learn about event planning but you learn how to be an ambassador to carry yourself as an individual and the brand that is called you. This has been my calling to impact people and when you empower a person, you empower the world at large. So we started the surprise package where we come into people’s homes to celebrate them and that has been an awesome experience so far.Honestly it was self-financed, I financed the business myself because I started my business with no money at all. I just had that vision that I wanted to add colour and beauty to life.
