Proprietors of the organisation believe that of all the institutions of a modern democracy, the media matter in large measure.

It can help forge new communities, pursue political and social agenda in support of a better society, and help build visions of hope and resistance. Sadly the media can also lead in negative directions: dividing people and truncating hope and vision.

In their country, the media have played both roles at different times in their history. Premium Times, founded in mid 2011, believes that the time has come for Nigeria to embrace the challenge of progress and development in a substantial, concrete sense.

They bring a huge commitment to offer their country the type of media that will advocate for the people and nudge their nation on the path of development and social reengineering. They are of the view that in terms of its formalistic processes, and its philosophy of content, the new media that will help spur the challenge of educational revolution, cultural rebirth, and economic development, in Nigeria, must be reflective, thoughtful, analytic and empathetic without a sense of entitlement and insularity.

They have come to fill that lacuna in their press, and therefore raise the bar of journalism in their country. They will publish across all formats beginning with this online platform where they hope to appeal to the bulk of their young and middle class elites with a vision of the future and a belief in social change..

Red Media Africa

Crunchbase | Website | Twitter | Facebook | Linkedin

We launched our communication business with a firm understanding that: youth would be the driver of every market, every sector, every audience and market reality in the very near future. Companies and marketing teams didn’t even have ‘youth segments’ when we began to speak of youth engagement, youth marketing and, subsequently, of millennials.

We led agencies, corporations, and governments to understand this future, to embrace it; and subsequently to own it. Being ahead of the curve is therefore central to who we are, to what we do, and to how we work.

We have always seen the marketing communication business in a fundamentally different way from everyone else, and we have been proven right, because the world has fundamentally changed the way customers relate to businesses. We have mastered this new reality to a fine art.

We see communication as transformational, rather than transactional: ideas rule the world where they strike a chord with audiences, where they achieve contagion through public ownership, and where they are seen to add concrete, sustainable value to people, systems and societies. That is who we are – we are the company agency that understands markets are first people, audiences are first communities, and reach is about actual human beings, not data points on a PowerPoint slide.

People want to see that you care about them, you care about your products, and you care about your impact on the wider world. From the smallest communication projects to massive multi-national public relations undertakings, we help organisations understand, embrace and take advantage of this reality in a way that enhances their bottom-line and moves them from a place of competition to a blue-ocean space of leadership.

The media for us is a tool to change lives, to inspire generations, to transform societies. And we bring that passion to brands, to organisations, and to projects – helping them go beyond just a series of ineffectual activities, to a public leadership role; to actually touching the hearts and minds of markets and audiences.
