Born out of a frustrating trip in 2016, Nigerian entrepreneur Ephraim Dafiaghor introduces Perime — a global platform reimagining how people discover, plan, and enjoy events, places, and unforgettable experiences.

What began as a chaotic group trip to Calabar in 2016 has now become a bold global movement. Today, founder and CEO Ephraim Dafiaghor officially announces the launch of Perime, a groundbreaking experience discovery and event management platform built to connect people to unforgettable moments, from live shows and culinary adventures to serene stays and cultural events.

“Pe-ri-me came to me after that trip to Calabar,” Ephraim recounts. “We were lost, disconnected, and constantly guessing what to do, where to eat, where to stay. That chaos planted a seed. I realized that if we had a tool to guide and centralize all those experiences, we’d have had a magical time. Now, we’ve built that tool, not just for Nigeria, but for the world.”

Perime is a global experience discovery and management platform designed to help people find where to go, what to do, and how to experience the best of hospitality, culture, and entertainment, all in one place. Built as a dynamic bridge between experience seekers and experience creators, Perime curates and powers local and international adventures by aggregating events, venues, and places into a seamless, intuitive, and richly interactive platform.

Perime allows users to easily discover what’s happening around them based on their location and interests, whether they’re locals seeking nightlife or tourists searching for authentic experiences. The platform also empowers event organizers and venue managers to host, promote, and manage bookings with ease - combining visibility, control, and marketing automation in one dashboard.

For users, Perime acts as a personal social compass, helping you explore a city like a local, whether you’re looking for the best rooftop bars in Nairobi, a live jazz night in Lagos, a food tasting festival in Accra, or an art exhibition in Cape Town. With advanced location-based discovery and interest-tagging, Perime offers personalized recommendations across hotels, restaurants, lounges, bars, clubs, shortlets, and rental venues, as well as events across multiple categories including music, art, tech, fitness, food, fashion, and more.

We curate our own narrative,” declares Dafiaghor. “This isn’t tech – it’s digital Afro-optimism. Where a Kigali coffee pop-up thrives beside Johannesburg’s mega-festivals. Where you discover cities through friends, not algorithms.”

For event organizers and place managers, Perime provides a robust suite of tools to manage, promote, and monetize experiences.

Perime is a social compass, helping users explore cities like insiders and making event discovery a delightful part of everyday life. In essence, Perime is redefining the way people connect with spaces, moments, and memories — by making the discovery, access, and enjoyment of hospitality and entertainment seamless, smart, and social.

With its mission to simplify exploration and empower connection, Perime is already gaining momentum across key African cities and is poised to scale globally.

“This isn’t just an app — it’s a movement,” Ephraim said. “We’re bridging the gap between memories waiting to happen and the people who crave them.”
