02 · Our Vision

From Atlanta to
the wider world.

Our vision is for DCA to grow beyond Atlanta into a global cultural platform that creates lasting visibility, recognition, and opportunity for African excellence worldwide. The platform’s future direction extends from Atlanta toward Houston, Maryland, Nigeria, London, Toronto, Johannesburg, and Dubai.

03 · Our Story

The story began
before 2026.

Diaspora Creatives Awards is the international evolution of work built through Kreate International. Its history does not begin with the inaugural DCA ceremony; it begins with a production and cultural foundation built in Nigeria and carried forward onto a global stage.

04 · From Kreate to the Global Stage

Built in Nigeria.
Made to travel.

Kreate was built in Nigeria through fashion, food, children’s cultural programming, business exhibitions, community events, and publishing. That production and cultural foundation evolved into Diaspora Creatives Awards — an international awards platform for African excellence.
