In an era marked by the creative industry’s growing influence, African creatives are strategically placed to lead a revolution backed by the continent’s undeniable creativity and cultural vibrance. Serving as a curtain raiser to the fourth edition of The Creative Class in January 2024, we’re hosting a roadshow to spotlight the capabilities of collaboration and co-creation in building innovative brands on December 1 2023.

The Power of Collaboration
Africa is teeming with creative talent doing amazing things but flying solo. On the continent, creatives already have to fight systemic and infrastructural odds that make working in silos counterproductive to long-term success. As the saying goes, ‘If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.’ In this context, we’ll uncover the future-proof abilities that collective work has to help you achieve and maintain success in your endeavours.
