I recently found an article at the Leadership (a Nigerian newspaper) entitled “How Absence Of Credible Entrepreneurs Ruins Cultural Goods” which explains how a post-colonial trade habit in Nigeria diminishes the revenues from cultural goods as the traders are not credible entrepreneurs.
It makes reference to a paper presentation titled, “Cultural Entrepreneurship Development in Nigeria’, delivered during the World Culture Day in Abuja, by the President, International Theatre Institute (ITI) Nigeria, Prof. Emmanuel Dandaura.
I help mission-driven companies, public and nonprofit initiatives, and asset-based projects design and integrate operational systems that enable clarity, continuity, and scale. With over 20 years of experience across Europe, including work in cultural, educational, and real estate contexts, I translate strategy and expert domain knowledge into durable workflows, decision frameworks, and operating models. My focus is on reducing friction, preserving institutional knowledge, and enabling teams and projects—whether program-based or asset-based—to perform reliably as complexity grows.
