Join industry innovator Jon Savage for a transformative masterclass exploring the power of Artificial Intelligence as a game-changing tool for African creatives.

From music production and content creation to marketing and monetisation, Jon dives deep into how AI is reshaping the creative landscape, not as a threat but as a powerful ally.

This session will unpack practical, accessible AI tools tailored to the African context, bust myths, and empower creatives with strategies to stay ahead of the curve.

Whether you're an artist, designer, producer, filmmaker, or entrepreneur, learn how to harness AI to amplify your voice, scale your hustle, and own your narrative.

It's not about replacing creativity, it's about supercharging it.
