ABOUT THE PULSE INFLUENCER AWARDS
The Pulse Influencer Awards has been set up to recognize and highlight bright lights in the influencer space in Africa who are building active engaged communities around their niche or craft.
The African media landscape, like the rest of the world, is changing quickly. Digital media is the new mainstream, and as such, the role of influencers in driving this change cannot be over emphasized.
This initiative is aimed primarily at engaging the influencer communities, highlighting the most consistent and impactful creators and ultimately also helping to strengthen the growth of digital media across Africa.
The Pulse Influencer Awards is expected to generate vast interest, engagement and reach across social media in all the participating countries.
