About Us
Empowering African Creator Economy
We are building the infrastructure for African Creator Economy from learning to earning.
While nearly 1 in 3 young Africans want to be a professional creator, only about 1 in 15 (roughly 6-7%) are currently active in the space, and less than 1% have reached a level of global financial sustainability. Our mission is simple, to empower African creators and entrepreneurs with the tools and platforms they need to transform their passions into profitable ventures. We envision a future where African creativity flourishes, creating over 10 million jobs through self-entrepreneurship.

Solving For Africa
Journey of a vision
At Eki, we recognize a critical gap in the creative economy. Despite being a billion-dollar industry, Africans often find themselves sidelined when it comes to profitability. We’re here to change it. Eki is committed to bridging the gap. With Africa’s rapidly growing population, the potential for growth is enormous. The creative industry is already one of the largest employer on the continent. By empowering creators and entrepreneurs, we aim to reduce unemployment, boost productivity, the economy and ensure that every African has the opportunity to monetize their creativity and passion.
