For the first time in the history of the Lions Creators Forum, an African creator service agency, Woof Studios Africa, will lead a multi-country delegation of top creative talent from Nigeria, Ghana, and South Africa to the iconic festival in Cannes, France, billed for June 16 to 2025.

The delegation to the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity includes some of Africa’s most exciting creative voices: Ifeyinwa Joan Mogekwu, the force behind Nigeria’s beloved culinary platform Ify’s Kitchen; dynamic South African duo Cent Twinz; Ghanaian visual artist and storyteller Enil Art (Israel Derrick Apeti); and South African entrepreneur, content creator, and speaker Mpoomy Ledwaba. Together, they will feature in speaking sessions, brand activations, and creative showcases, bringing the bold spirit and innovation of Africa’s creative economy to the global stage.

“Africa is not the future of creativity—we are the now,” said Adetutu Laditan, Founder & Creative Director at Woof Studios. “This is about more than visibility. It’s about rewriting the script on who shapes global culture. At Woof Studios, we believe in the power of African talent to shape the global creative landscape. We’re honoured and grateful to the Cannes Lions team for this opportunity to carry that message to Cannes on behalf of millions of African creators,” Laditan added.

As the industry’s most prestigious stage, Cannes Lions 2025 represents a significant milestone for Woof Studios and the broader African creative ecosystem. From panel discussions to pop-up showcases, Woof Studios and its creator partners are set to show the world what African storytelling, strategy, and style truly mean.
