According to a statement from NGX Group, the campaign is designed to project its new positioning and commitment to the African financial markets as a leading capital market infrastructure provider, connecting Nigeria, Africa and the world. The Stock Africa Is Made Of also serves to amplify NGX Group’s new brand identity and spotlight the growth potential of the African continent.

It provides stakeholders with an immersive experience through creative messaging and opportunities for direct engagement with the brand.
