The CMO Circle—Nigeria’s premier, invitation-only forum for Chief Marketing Officers and senior marketing leaders—announces Iquo Ukoh and Lolu Akinwunmi as Co-Chairs for its 2026 convening. Designed as a high-trust, executive platform, the Circle brings together the most influential voices in marketing to shape strategy at the highest levels of business and public policy.
Convened by MarkHack in partnership with StatiSense and Brand Communicator, the CMO Circle operates at the intersection of enterprise leadership and national development. Beyond dialogue, the Circle institutionalises its influence through the quarterly CMO Index—a flagship publication that aggregates executive sentiment, market intelligence, and forward-looking insights to inform policy conversations and economic decision-making. In doing so, the Circle positions marketing leadership as a critical voice in shaping Nigeria’s business environment and policy direction.
As Co-Chairs, Ukoh and Akinwunmi will curate and lead high-level discussions focused on innovation, talent density, enterprise growth, and the expanding mandate of the CMO within the C-suite. Their stewardship reinforces the Circle’s role as a convening authority—one that not only reflects industry thinking but actively defines it.
