Do you know that success is not a destination but a life journey? 
Some of us must take personal responsibility to make this nation great 
economically and socially. According to the Conveyor of the event, 
Stephen Akintayo; he said and I quote “Every revival without social 
transformation is a waste of time! I’m passionate about seeing 
successful businesses grow in Nigeria because that’s the only way to end
 unemployment. Technology is a powerful tool in stopping unemployment 
and creating jobs.” That’s one of the reasons why this year’s Upgrade 
Conference is focusing on TechPreneurs. Technology is the new oil in 
Nigeria so go get your own block now as the world is going mobile… We 
need to see more businesses like Jumia and Konga rise. We need mobile 
apps that can solve local problems and be monetized. Google started from
 the Garage, Facebook from school dormitory. That’s why we are holding 
the Campus edition of Upgrade Conference this year with the same team of
 Serial TechPreneur.
ABOUT UPGRADE CONFERENCE
Upgrade conference is a platform for every entrepreneur to awake the sleeping giants in them. It has been observed that most business owners get weary within the space of 3years of running their business and this is why most SMEs don’t rise above a particular level because they have not been able to carve a niche for themselves. Majority want to do almost everything that can bring in fast income for them. However, it is important to know that there are no new things anymore; everything we see around is a product of recreation. People need to know that what is invested can be reinvented, modified and upgrade- this is why this conference is put together to unleash the beauty of starting something and being consistence with it.
Every year the visionary, Stephen Akintayo organizes UPGRADE CONFERENCE to help participants to upswing from good to better in their businesses and careers; and to be less complacent on their achievement as well. It is a platform for business transition for SMEs to build a brand for their products and services. Someone said that the most dynamic societies in the world are the ones that have the most entrepreneurs, plus the economic and legal structure to encourage and motivate entrepreneurs to greater activities. A nation is said to be prosperous only to the degree to which it encourages entrepreneurial activities in the society.
