Diana Wangeci, Director of Africa Influencer Agency: “As AIA we can deliver tangible ROI for our clients as recognized experts in the industry for several years when it comes to PR, marketing, strategizing on impactful content and other digital services. The large network of companies and business professionals that the agency works with in all African countries and other continents allows clients to reach thousands of targeted audiences within short timelines, resulting in successful campaigns across different economic sectors. Its extensive reach sets AIA apart from any other PR agency as it guarantees maximum reach and results to clients.”

Also the designing of customized websites, blogs, newsletters, banners and other digital materials, as well as organizing business events for close encounters with the relevant professionals that make a brand’s message a live experience.

Diana Wangeci: “AIA’s strength lies in the utilisation of instruments that have been successful and in operation for many years. For example, the press release distribution service dubbed Africa Press List that reaches thousands of journalists across Africa and globally, the news site, Africa Business Communities and other social media platforms. We are therefore guaranteeing reach through our channels into our network by skipping the step of publishing on third party media and bringing the message directly to a relevant audience of individual people in our network. This means that at Africa Influencer Agency, we are connecting Africa with itself, with the world and the world to Africa.”

The launch of the agency is timely, as Africa continues to attract a bevy of investors buoyed by investment opportunities across ICT, infrastructure, education, agribusiness and real estate sectors. These economies continue to defy global financial slowdown and record promising trajectory with seven of the fastest-growing economies globally being from Africa according to recent studies.

With the coming into force of the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) – the largest free trade zone since the launch of the World Trade Organization – which is opening up a world of opportunities for Africa to trade with each other, the continent is now at a strategic position to expand trade and investment opportunities within and without and businesses are now primed to reach business partners through platforms available in the continent.
