Nigeria is blessed with abundant resources, both human and material but we do not recognize or utilize them.

At i2X Media Company Limited, we have discovered the power inherent in poetic youths. We give them a platform to express their views and opinion in a creative and entertaining way.

Like someone once said;
writers write,
singers sing,
teachers teach,
painters paint,
drivers drive,
runners run,
but what do Spoken Word Poets do? They “Spoke.”
Well, more like, they talk poetically and powerfully. They are capable of exerting influence a Governor or President might struggle with.

But why Spoken Word Poetry? Well, why not. Check out links of some of our poets' performances at different events we have organized, and you will get your answer.

Spoken Word Poetry is an evolution, it’s an emerging art, and its gaining momentum in Nigeria and West Africa.

As a major promoter of Performance Poetry and Spoken Word activities in Nigeria, we are passionate about the Art as a genre of entertainment, a tool to increase literacy level, and a means of communication among people across the globe.

We are the organizers of WORD UP -the biggest Spoken Word Poetry Event in Nigeria.

In August 2012, November 2012 and February 2013, three editions of Word Up were held providing the much needed visibility for Brands we partnered with.

The next one is scheduled for May 18 2013 and 2 others thereafter.

For the rest of the year, we will be partnering with international poets from across the world, offering workshops to empower poets and aspiring poets on how to write and perform good poems as well as turn it into profit.

This year 2013, we will also be starting a performance poetry competition that allows poets from all over Nigeria compete against each other.

What makes this exciting is that the Brand that partners with our team will receive leverage as the entries will be centered around the brand’s values and other such matters they might want promoted online.

The competition will be both online and on stage involving video presentations, article writing and Performance Poetry. It promises exciting content and results for brands that partner with us.

There will be cash prizes for the top 3 poets and partners can offer additional gifts of value to the winning poets.

Spoken Word Poetry can be used to increase Brand visibility and acceptability in any or all of the following ways:

Branding Opportunity across all touch points.

Advert placements in our DVDS sold across the country, and around the world.

Brand exposure on social media sites and affiliated websites e.g. Google plus, Youtube, Linkedin, Facebook, Twitter, Pin Interest, Naij.com, BellaNaija etc

Media exposure.

Product/ Services Experience and Sampling

Speaking Opportunity

Database Acquisition and so much more
