12 years of empowering emerging creatives and black businesses.

For over a decade, we've empowered creatives and Black-led businesses across the UK and Africa — removing barriers to global opportunities and commercial success. We work at the intersection of culture, commerce, and community — connecting talent to brands, platforms, and purpose through storytelling, experiential programmes, and strategic partnerships that drive real, measurable impact.

What
we do

Cultural Strategy & Advisory

We advise brands, institutions, and governments on how to engage with culture authentically and responsibly. Through strategic consulting and co-creation, we elevate emerging voices and build equitable ecosystems. From bespoke campaigns to global pop-ups, our work bridges cultures and reshapes narratives.

Creative & Cultural Partnerships

We design immersive campaigns and retail activations that bridge culture and commerce. Through cross-marketing and curated store experiences, we help brands expand across regions, integrate into new marketplaces, and prepare for megastore and flagship retail opportunities. Our work drives commercial visibility, access to funding, and long-term brand growth.

Experiential Retail & Brand Activations

We equip the next generation of creatives and entrepreneurs with the tools, opportunities, and support they need to thrive. Through programmes focused on creative employability, access and skills development. Our community initiatives tackle real-world challenges, supporting well being, identity, and inclusion, while building stronger, more resilient societies.
