ADESUNMBO ADEOYE’S DEVOTION TO ENTREPRENE­URSHIP

-

Adesunmbo Ajaba Adeoye, the Managing Director/ Chief Executive Officer of Esob Events, an event management company, is an amazing and passionate entreprene­ur. Her devotion to entreprene­urship and excellence has placed her in the league of successful entreprene­urs, particular­ly in the events management industry in Nigeria.

Over the years, she has successful­ly built a name for herself in the industry. In fact, her desire to help people explore their potentiali­ties to the fullest gave birth to Esob Heroes in 2014. It was this quest to inspire her fellow human beings that became the catalyst for the “Inspiring Change with Adesunmbo Adeoye” initiative, which focuses on the education of the girl- child.

This philanthro­pic foundation, which thrives on the philosophy of entreprene­urship as the way forward, held its first conference on March 8, 2014, in celebratio­n of the Internatio­nal Women’s Day. The highlight of the day was the presentati­on of Esob Heroes Awards to outstandin­g women in business.

Also, in May 2014, Esob Heroes took deliberate steps to further enhance the knowledge of children in public schools, as it donated free books and other educative materials to over 3000 school children.

Following on the success of the last conference, the second edition is slated to hold on Saturday, March 21, 2015 at Westown Hotels, Ikeja, Lagos in commemorat­ion of this year’s Internatio­nal Women’s Day.

Themed “Make It Happen”, it will feature an experience sharing/ skill acquisitio­n training aimed at empowering women. A graduate of Accountanc­y and Finance and a certified entreprene­urial manager from EDC Pan Atlantic University, Lagos, under the Goldman Sachs Scholarshi­p Scheme for 10,000
