Our Deckers EMEA team had an incredible time attending Omek's Summit in Amsterdam earlier this month. We are proud to partner with Omek and deeply appreciate their commitment to creating authentic ways to connect and providing professional advancement and development to people of African descent. At Deckers, we embrace each of our unique experiences and identities, knowing that they help us foster connections, drive innovation and create one culture of belonging. #Omek #deckersemea #deckersbrands #omeksummit #community
Wow, wow, wow! We are still glowing, full of awe by the power of this community of “the luckiest generation of African descent,” as our founder and CEO, Kemo Camara said. Because of people like you, showing up for yourself and others, our hearts are full of gratitude. Thank you for being part of the Omek Summit 2024 last Friday. It was truly a joy! ✨ “The vibe of the Omek Summit is something special, like a family reunion — you recognise a few faces and meet a bunch of new ones, all with the feeling that you are connected in some way!” Across #business, #tech, #entrepreneurship, #neurodiversity, and beyond, we must translate our experiences into a #superpower. Why now? Because we stand on the shoulders of giants, benefiting from the achievements and lessons of those who came before us. As technology evolves at an unprecedented rate, we must claim space responsibly and thoughtfully. By challenging and shifting social norms, we can be active in changing what has been acceptable so far and what must shift permanently. Ultimately, we are all part of a uniquely shared Pan-African mindset—a growing connection among people of African descent, fostering this community! Let’s take a moment to appreciate—including appreciating yourself and your efforts so far. ☀️ A huge shout out to all the speakers, moderators, emcees, performers and award winners for everything that you do. 💕 With a big thank to our sponsors and partners for enabling, supporting, and standing in allyship with the community!
