Entrepreneurs, creatives and SMEs across Nigeria gained actionable insights on business growth, legal protection and digital acceleration at the Ascend360 Conference held at the Naval Dockyard, Victoria Island, Lagos. The event, powered by Blaque Swann Legal Practitioners and themed Build, Protect and Grow, convened legal and business experts to address the realities of building sustainable ventures in a volatile economy.
Organisers described the conference as a catalyst for transformation, encouraging participants to build ventures that can stand the test of time. They emphasised that growth must be intentional and backed by structures that protect ideas, assets and ownership as businesses expand.
Sessions throughout the event explored strong business foundations, legal safeguards, resilience in uncertain markets and digital strategies for scaling. Speakers urged entrepreneurs to think long term, strengthen branding, embrace innovation, adapt to market shifts and cultivate the mindset required for sustainable enterprise development.
The event ended with a keynote reminding participants that knowledge alone is insufficient without execution. Attendees were encouraged to translate insights into deliberate action capable of driving growth and positioning SMEs to thrive despite economic pressures.
