WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE LAGOS SOCIAL MEDIA WEEK

The Social Media Week is built on the belief that we should better

understand how technology is providing new inspiration for how we live,

work and create. In a little over five years Social Media Week has built

a dynamic platform for communities across the globe to discuss how

social media and communication technologies are impacting lives on a

local level. To date 26 cities and over 80,000 people have participated

in SMW.  In 2013 the SMW Lagos Team had the pleasure (and challenge) of

widening the lens to include for the very first time an African city –

Lagos, Nigeria.
