A leading event, media, and advertising agency, Laurel Leaf Communications is proud to announce a new empowerment program in collaboration with the Ondo State Government through the office of the Senior Special Adviser to Ondo State Governor on Students Affairs, Hon. Kelvin Solomom Olaolu, widely known as KSO. This initiative aims to inspire creativity and innovation by empowering student entrepreneurs in the state.
Also for the first time, the 2024 Lead Awards will provide an opportunity for Ondo State entrepreneurs to have a roundtable discussion on innovation and creativity.
This thirty-minute panel section, powered by the Growth Hub, will leverage the strengths and expertise of all the organizations involved to provide a platform for community members, small businesses, and local leaders to collaborate, share knowledge, and access essential resources. The section will focus on key areas such as education, economic development, digital transformation, and social impact.
Speaking on the partnership, the SSA to Ondo State Governor on Students Affairs, Hon. Kelvin Solomom Olaolu, while showing his excitement, reaffirmed the state government’s commitment towards the welfare of every young person in Ondo State.
“We are excited to join forces with Laurel Leaf Communications to create meaningful opportunities for young people in Ondo State through their annual platform, LEAD Awards. This partnership represents the commitment of His Excellency, Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, to driving positive change and supporting sustainable development in Ondo State. Mr. Governor has mandated us to take very seriously the welfare of every student in the state. Together, we aim to build a more inclusive and empowered future for our youths, especially students,” said KSO.
The Chief Executive Officer of Laurel Leaf Communications, Adebukola Oba, thanks the state government as she urges young entrepreneurs in the state to embrace the opportunity: “I want to thank the state government under the leadership of His Excellency, Governor Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, for his support. I must also commend the Senior Special Adviser to Ondo State Governor on Students Affairs, Hon. Kelvin Solomom Olaolu, whose office this was powered.” For us at Laurel Leaf Communications, we prioritize the welfare of the Ondo State people, and that was why the Leadership Excellence and Dignity Awards were established, so this year, we don’t just want to reward and honour our patriots; we feel the need to also empower the rising generation, especially those building an entrepreneurship career.”

This year, we don’t just want to provide a networking opportunity; we want student entrepreneurs to have access to specialized tools and resources. The 2024 LEAD Awards will offer our audience and guests the opportunity to learn from industry experts, develop critical skills, and connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about making a difference. We are thrilled to have the Ondo State government and the Growth Hub on board. By combining our expertise and resources, we are confident that we can create lasting change and inspire community members to take an active role in shaping their future.
