BY FUNMI ALUKO

All is set for the Face of Maritime International (FOMI), a maritime industry pageantry to celebrate its 10th Anniversary with a Grand Finale event scheduled for Friday, October 3, 2025, in Lagos.

With the theme “A Decade of Vision, Creativity, Resilience & Impacts”, the landmark celebration will spotlight FOMI’s remarkable journey and its contributions to maritime advocacy over the past ten years.

According to the organisers, the prestigious event will be hosted at Villa Angelia Hotel, Falomo-Ikoyi, Lagos, with the red-carpet reception beginning at 3:00 pm, followed by the main programme at 4:00 pm.

The 10th Anniversary, they explained, goes beyond a celebration of accomplishments. It is also designed to highlight FOMI’s resilience, innovation, and impact on maritime awareness, women empowerment, and youth inclusion in the sector.

Since its inception, FOMI has positioned itself as a pioneering platform that bridges the gap between the maritime industry and young people, especially women, by creating avenues for exposure, mentorship, and opportunities in the sector.

The anniversary is expected to attract dignitaries, maritime stakeholders, government officials, partners, and friends of the initiative, all of whom have played vital roles in its decade-long success.

Organisers further noted that the Grand Finale will provide a space for reflection on past achievements, while also casting a vision for the next decade of maritime advocacy and innovation.

As part of the evening, VIP guests will enjoy an exclusive experience carefully curated to reflect the elegance and prestige of the occasion.

FOMI emphasized that the 10th Anniversary celebration is strictly by invitation only, and urged invited guests to confirm their attendance through the official RSVP contacts: 08146289698 and 08035902661.

The organisation described the milestone as both symbolic and forward-looking, reaffirming its commitment to advancing maritime opportunities in Nigeria and across Africa.
