Belmiro Quive
Prolific mozambican event organizer and a public influencer. Born in the bustling metropolitan city of Maputo, 47 years ago, my name and my company BDQ Events are associated with the most memorable shows ever organised in mozambique, staging world renown artists like George Benson, Kool & The Gang, Billy Ocean, Marcus Miller, The Whispers to name but a few, which have gathered an audience in excess of half a million in total.

My huge network of contacts in the industry has warranted me a limelight position and a huge reputation in the country as well as in the region.

The BAAADU Festival is undoubtedly a unique opportunity to accrue value to the work that I have been carrying out, by offering a platform to interact with african native and african diaspora celebrities.

As a BAAADU Ambassador to Mozambque, this is an exhilarating and humbling experience that I commit to use as a springboard to launch mozambican artist to the world, and make BAAADU Festival a reference name to mozambican artists.
