Pulse, Africa’s leading innovative media company, has announced the launch of the maiden edition of the Pulse Influence  Awards this August. The company says the Pulse Influencer Awards has been set up to recognize and highlight bright lights in the influencer space in Africa who are building actively engaged communities around their niche or craft.

Pulse is operative in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Senegal, and the awards will take place in each of these markets, featuring various categories and platforms.

Through Pulse mass media platforms and social media channels in its markets, it reaches over 100 million users monthly. Pulse TV is its innovative video producer, creating formats across the channels.

Kanyinsola Aroyewun, Head of Marketing and Content Growth at Pulse said about the awards:

“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 overemphasized. Our initiative is aimed primarily at engaging the influencer communities in each of our markets, highlighting the most consistent and impactful creators and ultimately also helping to strengthen the growth of digital media across Africa.”

The Pulse Influencer Awards will kick off with a round of open nominations from the community, after which the list of nominated influencers will be screened by the Jury, who will select 10 nominees based on the criteria for each category.
