The event kicked off by a guest speaker Kennedy Ekezie, a visionary leader passionate about Africa’s progress. He shared practical strategies to set tangible and time bound goals for 2025.
One of the highlights of his session was an interactive exercise where participants wrote letters to their future selves, which will be read at next year’s event in 2026. This thoughtful activity was to hold attendees accountable.
In the second session, Ezinne Nwazulu, Managing Partner at 234Finance, led a discussion on _”How to Close Deals in 2025: Practical Steps to Securing Commitments From Leads”_ She shared practical tips on networking with high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) and peers, stressing how authentic, lasting relationships can create opportunities and drive success.
Participants shared their experiences and takeaways from the event. _”I loved the session where we wrote a letter to ourselves. I’m so hopeful that if I’m not in Lagos, I will fly in for the 2026 event just to open that letter and tell myself, ‘You did it.'” – Sherifah Yunus_
__”My favorite session today was the networking session. I met a lot of visionaries. What we learned today, we will come together as a team to put into action, bringing our vision for 2025 to life. At 234Finance, you get to meet quality people, visionaries, and HNIs.”_ said Abraham Whyte
The event attracted attendees from various industries and career stages. The Vision Boarding Event has become a staple for individuals who want to align their goals with actionable steps. Many past attendees have returned to share how the event helped them set and achieve their goals.
“The vision boarding format was a bit different and more in depth. I was also a participant when the first facilitator, who spoke before me, was speaking, and there were things I could connect with. There’s always room for improvement, but we are happy with the consistency. We also realized that people consistently attend this event; I believe some have attended for three years in a row. This means we are doing something right, adding value, and creating an impact in our community,” said Ezinne Nwazulu, Managing Partner at 234Finance.
Sponsors also expressed their enthusiasm for the Blueprints & Bridges Vision Boarding Event 2025, highlighting its impact on participants and are excited to continue their partnership.
