Hi All,
Jeremy Maggs is a media specialist with close on forty years’ experience in television, radio, and print. Until recently, he hosted television news channel eNCA’s weekday lunchtime news programme before stepping down to co-found Bold – a strategy and reputation management enterprise which is part of the independent Brave Group.
Best known for his role as presenter of the international hit show Who Wants to be Millionaire, he also is the founder of maggsonmedia one of the longest-running media and advertising shows in international television history. The show has moved with the times and is now online.
The Brave Group, in its pursuit of tangible benefits for every member of its ecosystem, disrupts conventional advertising models, challenges equity assumptions, and questions outdated practices in client-agency relationships.
With a determination to carve a new path and establish a replicable model extending beyond the advertising and marketing domain, Musa is inspired by what Singularity University terms a ‘massive transformative purpose. He invites others to join this transformative journey.
By interweaving anecdotal examples and personal reflections with a practical theory of change, The Brave Code serves as an inspiration for young entrepreneurs, professionals, and trailblazers in Africa. It encourages them to play a pivotal role in unlocking the immense potential that the continent holds. The Brave Code explores Musa’s journey with Brave Group to pioneer a shared-value creative enterprise as a blueprint for other organisations in Africa.
