Mavin Global has opened applications for its third cohort of the Mavin Future Five talent accelerator. This program supports the next generation of executives in the African music industry. Since its launch in 2021, it has received over 3,200 applications, selecting 10 fellows per cohort, with over 80% of alumni now employed in the entertainment sector. The new cohort invites young professionals aged 18-25 across five tracks. The program emphasizes mentorship, real-world experience, and aims to strengthen the overall African music ecosystem.
"People always talk about 'the next big artist,' but rarely about the next great executive. That's what we're changing," says Don Jazzy, Founder and CEO of Mavin Global.
"Mavin Future Five is now part of how we recruit, how we innovate, and how we stay young at heart as a company," says Tega Oghenejobo, President and COO of Mavin Global.
"Talent is Nigeria's greatest export and that includes the thinkers, builders, and strategists behind the music. Future Five is about giving those people the launchpad necessary to accelerate their development and build on the success we're experiencing as an industry."
"When we equip brilliant young minds with the right tools and exposure, the ripple effect goes beyond Mavin. It strengthens the ecosystem, raises the bar, and ensures the next generation is well-prepared."
