We’re proud to have partnered with Takalani Sesame for the ‘Bond Through Play’ campaign from an influencer perspective. This initiative provided an essential platform to foster the connection between parents and children through the power of play, which is vital for early childhood development, especially in South Africa, where parenthood needs to be supported and nurtured. Joining this effort was imperative to us, as it aligns with our company values and our mission to drive awareness around impactful causes that enhances both education and family bonds to promote positive learning environments. Thank you to media update for sharing the campaign. Read more about the campaign below:

The content industry is ALIVE in Africa and Nollywood is leading the charge. Here is to many more collaborations as we continue to Nurture Africa's Creative Voice.
Nollywood is a ~$6 billion industry, producing around 2,500 films each year. As one of Nigeria’s largest employers and the second-fastest-growing film industry in the world, its impact is undeniable. However, many talented Nigerian filmmakers with incredible stories struggle with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively distribute and monetize their content. In celebration of Africa Month, the amazing YouTube Africa team, together with Special Effects Media, launched a program aimed at empowering around 400 Nollywood filmmakers and industry professionals to maximize their reach, engagement, and revenue on the platform. Over the course of three days, we hosted a series of in-person masterclasses on content creation and monetization, along with meet-and-greets where creators could connect with brands and their communities. The highlight for me was our Content Premiere Night on Day 2. It was a fantastic evening showcasing new and upcoming films, web series, and shows on YouTube. It also gave creators the chance to engage with media, influencers, and generate publicity for their work. We also took this opportunity to celebrate creators who achieved significant subscriber milestones over the past year. One of the greatest parts of working closely with creators is witnessing firsthand the dedication and passion they put into their content, communities, and businesses. Seeing them receive the recognition they deserve was incredibly rewarding. Here's a sneak peek into what was truly a beautiful evening! 😊
