Coinciding with Africa Month, The Africa Soft Power Project is a virtual summit bringing together some of the world’s best minds for a series of online talks. By harnessing the talents of some of the continent’s top creatives, the goal is to launch powerful initiatives to advance Africa. This grand global gathering, themed ‘The Bridge: The Past, The Present, The Future’, will connect thought leaders, influencers and pioneers through a broader conversation around Africa’s creative power and knowledge economy — and how these assets can strengthen ties between the continent, diaspora community and the world at large. The sessions, curated around film, music, fashion, sports, technology, finance, art, social impact and much more, will explore new, tangible strategies and initiatives to help speed up Africa’s economic growth and retell its story.
