I once read somewhere that the greatest motivator is recognition, and as corny as this might sound, recognition is my drive. My drive basically is wanting to leave a mark on this earth…you know, not just passing through it silently. GidiNoize was born on out of a yearn for owning something…you know having your own thing going on. From the chairs to the tables – every single thing! Don’t let anyone tell you your ideas are stupid you never know that IDEA just might be another addition to the things around you. Look around you, everything around you/us was JUST AN IDEA by someone JUST LIKE YOU. I’ll start by saying your first capital is your mind. I’ll not bore you with all my rantings, but I’ll leave you with just a couple of things I’ve learnt and that have helped me a lot: “You being here reading this means you are either an entrepreneur already or you’ll like to be one. Sly Kay-Adade, and I must say, his interview was one of the most educative and inspiring interviews I have ever done and I recommend that you read it. There’s a part of GidiNoize called: Gidis Young Enterprise (G.Y.E.) where I do interviews with young Nigerian Entrepreneurs and amongst these young Entrepreneurs was the CEO of The SKA Group himself, Mr. When I started GidiNoize, my aim was to make noise for those who can’t (e.g helping upcoming entrepreneurs, artistes, actresses etc) make NOISE, but with a Z (hence NoiZe) lol. This just goes to show that even if at first it doesn’t work out, you should keep trying. I kept doing more posts and the views kept multiplying. I got hundreds of views and after that, there was no stopping me. The post that brought me to limelight was that of on Annette Begg, who won the Elite Model Look. GidiNoize which started off as a wordpress blog wasn’t/isn’t my first blog as a matter of fact, it is my 3rd actually not even 3rd (I’ve lost count). For those who don’t know me, I’m Bunmi Adeyinka, and I’m the Founder & CEO of GidiNoize. GidiNoize was born on the 19th of September, 2009 out of a yearn to own something/be an entrepreneur. This is my first interview/write up ever. It aims to make noise for them.įirst, I’ll like to say its a privilege being here on Inspitories. GidiNoize is a news website that aims to advertise and showcase the ventures of young, upcoming entrepreneurs, artistes, actors and so on, and also to inspire other young people. I’m especially honored because within a short time (less than 5 months), it has gained such popularity with over 30,000 hits since inception and a “gazillion” interviews under its belt! Something really impressive, GidiNoize recently launched its Apple iPhone Application! With all this going on, she’s still a student and also a Civil Engineering Intern at ARUP.ĭid I mention she’s just 18?! If for nothing else, she’s an inspiration and that makes her inspitories-worthy. Surprisingly, this is GidiNoize’s & the CEO’s very first interview and I’m honored to go down their history as the first “interviewer”. Her piece on me gave me a lot of recognition in the Nigerian Scene, and apparently, also landed me the Future Nigeria Awards 2010 “Business Owner of the Year” Award Nomination. It’s one of the most a reliable source of news & information especially for the Nigerian Public abroad. Make some noise! It’s GidiNoize! GidiNoize is an exceptional blog with the sole purpose of showcasing young talent and to me, that’s amiable. They are usually interviews of other Entrepreneurs like myself whom I have had the pleasure of meeting, stumbled upon online or dug up that motivate me. Inspitories is my made up word for inspirational stories on young people I find interesting.
