Lagos Marriott Hotel, Ikeja - 5:00 p.m
On Friday, at the Lagos Mariot Hotel, we will host our donors, board members, partners, CSOs and individuals who have been a big part of our success story in the last decade.
This will give us an opportunity to share some of the remarkable achievements we have recorded in Nigeria, and our plan to expand our operations beyond the shores of Africa while leveraging emerging technologies to improve participatory governance and advocacy for fiscal transparency and accountability, one country at a time.
Our story is not yet finished if we do not share our expectations for the next decade. The last ten years have been great, and we know the next ten years will blow our minds even more.
Join us for a night of awesomeness.
We have limited spaces for our Dinner and Awards Night, so kindly register on time.
Our 10th anniversary (BudgIT @10) is a milestone, and we hope to tell our story and reel the public in on our achievements in those years, as well as our goals and expectations for the next decade.
Ride with us!
Understanding users and their journeys and how we discover the best in people during times of crisis.
