Hello, I’m David.

I’m a media founder, strategist, and storyteller helping shape the future of Africa’s creative economy.

I build ecosystems where media, technology, and culture intersect, helping organizations grow influence, attract capital, and drive impact.

I’m the founder of Communiqué, a fast-growing media and intelligence company covering Africa’s creative economy. Our platform reaches 45,000+ professionals — including leaders at OpenAI, Google, Meta, Goldman Sachs, and key global players.

For over a decade, I’ve helped businesses and institutions tell better stories and shape how the world sees Africa. My work spans journalism, strategic communications, public speaking, and advisory roles — grounded in the belief that media is a lever for long-term growth.

Previously:

  • I led communications at Eko Atlantic City, Africa’s largest city-building project

  • I directed editorial coverage as Africa Editor at Rest of World, leading tech narratives from across the continent

  • I’ve had my work and commentary published written for or been featured in Al Jazeera, Quartz, The Guardian, Reuters Institute, and more.

Let’s Work Together

I currently advise and collaborate with:

  • Media entrepreneurs and creator platforms

  • Creative economy investors and ecosystem builders

  • Policymakers, governments, and institutions working on digital or cultural strategy
