The Industry Newspaper has announced its Top 50 Men of Impact 2025, honouring exceptional figures whose work and influence have shaped key sectors across Nigeria’s economy. The recognition spans a wide range of industries — from integrated marketing communications, entertainment, banking, telecommunications, healthcare, entrepreneurship, technology, and energy to media, journalism, and project management.
These distinguished professionals have been carefully selected for their visionary leadership, innovation, and measurable contributions to growth within their industries. Their achievements reflect the evolving landscape of Nigerian enterprise and creativity, where resilience and excellence continue to inspire the next generation.
The honorees will be celebrated at a special ceremony titled “The Industry Men of Impact 2025”, scheduled for November 4, 2025, at Radisson Blu, Isaac John, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos. Themed “Empowering Men: Achieving Balance in a Fast-Paced World,” the inaugural edition aims to spotlight the role of men in driving positive change while maintaining equilibrium between professional and personal well-being.
Ahead of the awards presentation, the event will feature a thought-provoking panel session exploring the central theme. Industry icons such as Mr. Udeme Ufot (GCEO, SO&U), Rufai Ladipo (GMD, Agile Communications), Mr. Jimi Awosika (EVC, Insight Redefini), Mr. Funmi Onabolu (CEO, Cosse LLC), Mr. Muyiwa Kayode (CEO, USP Communications), and Sir Steve Omojafor are expected to attend and share insights on leadership, mentorship, and evolving industry trends.
As the countdown to the event begins, The Industry Newspaper reaffirms its commitment to recognizing excellence and inspiring professional integrity across sectors. The Top 50 Men of Impact 2025 list serves not only as a celebration of success but also as a benchmark for the values driving Nigeria’s most influential leaders.
