With no shred of doubt, Nigeria’s event planning industry has boomed in recent years, experiencing significant growth and solidifying its place as a major contributor to the country’s socio-economic development.
Whilst this esteemed social networking space has attained an appreciable and applaudable milestone, it will as well be appropriate or necessary to have the enterprise be effectively and efficiently managed by seasoned, highly disciplined, well trained, humble and committed individuals with good pedigree of high moral rectitude.
Interestingly, one individual who has carved a niche for herself in the industry and known for giving attention to details with precision is Oluwatosin Bayode (Miss), the Creative Director and Lead Planner of Valtara Events. Though based in Lagos, but also equipped with the capacity to work in any part of the country.
Oluwatosin who is armed with industry’s requisite experience and protocol in a chat with some selected journalists in Lagos on Friday notes that Nigerians have increasingly and deliberately embraced the events planning industry with diverse positive experiences, adding that it serves right to have managers of such important sector to be coordinated by qualified, fit, prim and proper individuals like herself.
“Imagine a world where your favourite events in Nigeria are not just gatherings but memorable, world-class spectacles. That is the exciting evolution of the Nigerian events industry, where once-simple gatherings have become sophisticated experiences that captivate audiences and offer them lasting and satisfying memories.
“A successful event must reflect the client’s goals and the richness of Nigerian trends and emerging themes, in which the art of personalisation comes into play. Tailoring an event to resonate with the specific tastes and preferences of the audience transforms it from a mere gathering into a memorable experience.
“For us at Valtara Events It’s about balancing honouring tradition and embracing modernity, ensuring every event, irrespective of its nature, whether a corporate function in Lagos or a cultural celebration in Ijebu or political gathering in Abuja, speaks directly to its attendees. Every element, from the décor to the programming, must be meticulously designed to reflect the essence of the event with precision, timeliness, and attention to details to meet the client’s specifications and desires.
“My well trianed, courteous, professional team and I strongly stand as a beacon of innovation, recognising that the future of events lies in embracing these trends and reimagining the very essence of celebration. Driven by a steadfast pursuit of excellence, we strive to deliver exceptional experiences that resonate deeply with our audience.
“Meanwhile, we are not resting on our oars, but determined to embrace the art of creating memorable experiences in Nigerian events, which requires a fusion of creativity, cultural understanding, and logistical expertise. With the right balance, events can transcend mere functionality and leave a lasting legacy. For us at Valtara, our penchant for excellence has consistently helped us to build a healthy and symbiotic relationship with all our clients. This is a success story which we always love to share and it is often yielding us referrals and expanding our client base,” Oluwatosin stated.
