Umuahia, Abia State – The South East Creative Economy is poised for a transformative leap as Umuahia, the capital of Abia State, prepares to host the inaugural South East Creative Economy Summit. Slated for November 21-22, 2024, this groundbreaking event promises to be a pivotal gathering for creative industry practitioners and entrepreneurs across the region.




The Summit, themed 'Intellectual Property, Entertainment Technology and Wealth Creation: Imperatives for Enhancing the South East Creative Economy,' aims to bridge the gap between the current status of the South East's creative industry and its immense potential. Organized by a consortium of industry stakeholders led by Ojemba Media & Entertainment Limited, the Summit seeks to foster growth, innovation, and sustainable development within the sector.





At the heart of the Summit's agenda is a focus on intellectual property, a critical element for safeguarding the creative works of artists, filmmakers, musicians, and other creative professionals. By highlighting the importance of intellectual property protection, the event aims to empower industry players with the knowledge and tools needed to thrive in a competitive global market. Discussions will also delve into entertainment technology and the evolving landscape of digital content, offering insights into how creatives can leverage these tools for wealth creation and long-term success.




Key topics to be explored include intellectual property rights, copyright enforcement, the challenge of piracy, and the need for a robust structural framework to support the industry. Additionally, the Summit will address the financial aspects of the creative economy, such as access to credit, credit management, and sustainable investment models. Through these discussions, the event aims to produce a data-driven blueprint that will guide future policy-making, investment, and regulatory efforts at both the national and sub-national levels.




In partnership with key federal and state government agencies, as well as private sector institutions, the Summit will convene top Nigerian and international experts, stakeholders, and regulators. These industry leaders will provide insights and guidance to South East creatives, equipping them with the tools needed to navigate the challenges of the modern economy.




The choice of Umuahia as the host city underscores Abia State's commitment to fostering the growth of the creative industry, aligning with the Federal Government's broader strategy to diversify Nigeria's economy by strengthening non-oil sectors. The event will take place at the prestigious Sun Heaven Hotels, a fitting venue for an occasion of this magnitude.





Further details about the Summit, including the lineup of speakers and partners, will be unveiled in an upcoming press conference.
