šŸ‡²šŸ‡¦ Last week, continuing a yearly tradition we’ve held since 2020, we brought together an extraordinary group of creatives, educators, strategists, innovators, and thought leaders from across Africa, Europe, and the US for the Creative Offsite | Marrakesh 2026.

šŸŒ Over three days of discussions, spotlight sessions, working groups, and cultural immersion, we explored what it would take to operationalize a new model of higher education in design and innovation — one that is more human-centered, more responsive to industry and technological change, and more deeply grounded in cultural context.

✨ What made this gathering especially meaningful was the quality of connection shaped around a shared sense of purpose. New relationships formed, perspectives productively collided, ideas sharpened, and a real sense of conviction emerged: that this moonshot is not only worth pursuing, but worth building together.

šŸš€ Most importantly, this was not simply an inspiring exchange of ideas. We left Marrakesh with something tangible: a clear and actionable plan to pilot, prototype, and formally launch a new educational model designed to identify, nurture, and enable the next generation of creative talent from across the African continent.

šŸ’« That is what made this year’s Creative Offsite so significant. It was not only about imagining what might be possible, but about aligning people, energy, and intentions around concrete next steps.
Deep gratitude to everyone who showed up with such generosity, rigor, and heart. And to those who could not join us this time: you were missed, but you remain part of this journey.

šŸ“· More to come soon — with photos, videos, and a few of the voices and moments that made this experience so powerful.
