The summit represents the highest-level convening of the African creative, knowledge and digital sectors, bringing together public and private sector organisations, as well as pioneering individuals from the fields of law, finance, technology, sports, media, arts and entertainment, academia, philanthropy, politics and more.

Hosted at the Kigali Serena Hotel, the gathering will take place across 5 action packed days, including 3 main events:

The events include:the inaugural RAW Women’s Leadership Conference scheduled for May 24th. It is powered by ASP’s non-profit arm African Women on Board (AWB), RAW is Real, it’s Africa-hosted, and it’s women-led, seeking to push the reset button on gender discourse and ask the question: If the Diversity, Equality, & Inclusion (DEI) movement had been invented today, how might we approach it differently?

Secondly, the Creative & Innovative Industries Conference is scheduled for May 25th. The CII Conference according to the organizers will examine how the African creative sectors can deliver growth and return on the continent. It will also look at how these industries be used to better tell the modern African story on the world stage, changing perspectives, shifting global dialogues, and strengthening relationships with the diaspora community along the way.

Thirdly, Africa Soft Power Gala & Awards billed to take place May 25th is a veritable feast of African creative and innovative output in action.

Explaining further, organised informed that the ASP Gala will demonstrate the latest African art, fashion, film, entertainment, media, and tech, bringing the presentations and themes of the previous two days to life before delegates’ very eyes.

“Around this, there’ll be a whole host of accompanying activities, from drinks receptions and trips out to the NBA Africa playoffs, to meetings, masterclasses and roundtables, as well as an array of cultural outings in Kigali. And while it’s Africa-led, and Rwanda-staged, it’s important to note that the ASP Summit is for the entire world, examining the industries of today that will fuel the global economic growth of tomorrow”, the organizers informed.

“Across five days, three key events, and a range of networking activities, we’ll see the spotlight shone on creative endeavour, and its commercial viability, not only on the continent but around the world,” said Nkiru Balonwu, Founder & Creative Director for Africa Soft Power.

“During a packed-out week, the creative and digital economies of tomorrow will meet with the financial and business powerhouses of today, together forming clear pathways to future economic success for our women, young people, and the wider global community”.

“The introduction of the inaugural RAW Women’s Conference is a particularly welcome addition to this year’s proceedings, and we are confident that more broadly, the often still largely unheard African voice – and those who join us from around the world – can examine new solutions to some of the key public and private sector issues of the day.
