Nigeria stands as Africa’s cultural capital, and @CanexAfrica WKND 2026 provides the platform to translate our creative output - across music, film, fashion, literature, visual arts, and gastronomy - into market access, deal flows, and institutional growth under the AfCFTA. As we prepare to welcome creators, investors, and trade partners from across the continent to Lagos, we have curated and designed a four-day experience that grounds creative talent in tangible commercial opportunities. Featuring structured deal rooms, IP licensing, songwriting hubs, masterclasses with Prof. Wole Soyinka, and five decades of Nigerian fashion, we are opening doors for creators to protect, monetise, and scale globally. See you at the National Theatre, Lagos, from November 5–8 as we shape the future of African trade and culture! Register now at canex.africa. #CANEXWKND2026 #IATF2027 #HMIndustryTradsInvestment #FMITI

Powerful jaws and molars 😳 chowing down a whole coconut. Shell and flesh together. Guess @mitimeth_ won’t be making fashion trims from this particular coconut shell 🤷🏾‍♀️ #bangkokelephantpark #elephantsanctuary #bangkok #elephant

Our planet is sending us signals.   Too wet. Too dry. Too hot.   But listen, listen again.    Do you hear something else?   This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we turn the volume up on the urgent signals the Earth is sending and how, together, we can act #NowForClimate.  📽 Open Planet

@mitimeth_, for example, removes water hyacinth, a plant that clogs waterways, and transforms it into woven baskets, rugs, lamps, and home décor. What was once a problem in our rivers becomes a product in our homes. – at Lagos, Nigeria
