1ST FRIDAYS SPECIAL

By Friday, your mindset is probably in TGIF mode... anything business related that will cut into your "you" time seems unappealing; but the organizers of First Fridays Lagos have found a way to make a business event on a Friday night an enticing addition to your TGIF list... (TGIFF some may say)

First Fridays Lagos is a networking and socializing event for young professionals, entrepreneurs and organizations with a keynote speaker each month addressing major business issues - this months keynote speaker is the MD of HFP.

So not only will you pick up a serving of knowledge, you'll be sure to meet loads of business minded people and working class colleagues as well.

The October's edition is on Friday the 2nd, 6-10pm at Saipan restaurant and the event fee is just N1k. They have a strict dress code of business casual (no jeans or tee-shirts), and a most people are stressing no "African time" folks!
