Andre Timmins, Co-Founder of IIFA, expressed the vision behind the initiative, saying, “For many years, I have felt there was a need for a space within our industry that goes beyond red carpets, formalities and commercial agendas, a space where people can genuinely come together to connect, exchange ideas, discover new perspectives and simply enjoy meaningful conversation in a relaxed and inspiring environment.
> With IIFA Connex, that vision begins to take shape. It is designed as a contemporary meeting ground for the creative community, where entertainment, fashion, media, business, music, culture and innovation naturally intersect. A place where established voices and emerging talent alike can engage openly, collaborate organically and build relationships that may inspire the future
