Afrexim Bank Boosts Africa’s Creative Industry with Launch of “One Drum” EP

This innovative initiative aims to promote Africa’s creative economy, drive economic growth, and solidify the continent’s position as a global creative hub.

Afreximbank, having recognised the relevance and opportunities provided by the creative economy as a key driver for development and job creation, established the Creative Africa Nexus programme (CANEX) to support the  development of Africa’s Creative and Cultural Industries and address some of  the challenges faced by this economy, through the provision of access to  finance, capacity building, trade, investment and export promotion, access to new market opportunities, digital solutions, and policy advocacy to  fast-track the scaling of Africa’s creative sectors within the global economy.
