Themed “Unleashing the potential and value of the African Creative Industry,” the continent’s billion-dollar creative industry will be at the center of conversations at the event, which aims to shine a spotlight on the possibilities and untapped value that the industry holds.
Courtesy Platform CapitalAs an advocate for the continent’s cultural potential, Akindele is passionate about changing misconceptions surrounding the African creative industry at Africa Walk.
“There’s a myth about the creative industry (in Africa) - that it is not structured and that you cannot put money in there,” he said.
Similar to the oil industry’s success, the creative industry requires a lot of refineries to produce the finest oil product.
The same refining is highly needed for our creative industry now,” said the singer whose real name is Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo.
