Swish Fusion is the brainchild of Theophilus Akhimie, a seasoned Marketing Management professional with extensive experience in strategic planning and marketing strategies. With a background working with major brands in the United States such as Nautica, Adidas, USA Today Network, Pinterest, and Accenture, Akhimie brings a wealth of knowledge that cuts across fashion, entertainment, media and tech which really enriches this groundbreaking initiative.
When asked about the inspiration behind Swish Fusion, Akhimie stated, “The idea behind Swish Fusion is to bring world-class media and tech brands with proven capabilities from the United States, Europe, and beyond to Africa for a first-hand proof of concept and market validation experience.”
Akhimie further emphasized that the summit’s goal is to facilitate investment and collaboration between tech and media companies and local players in Africa’s rapidly growing market. By bridging the gap between the two continents [America and Africa], this initiative aims to foster viable investment growth and harness Africa’s untapped potential in the tech industry, creating a win-win situation for both continents.”
Swish Fusion is more than an event; it’s a visionary initiative set to reshape the future of tech and media collaboration between Africa and the international tech and media business community. The premier edition of the Summit is scheduled to be held on the 6th June, 2025 in Lagos, Nigeria.
