Tech X Creators Expo: BluBox’s Creative Champions Innovation, Industry among African Youth

The media landscape is evolving at lightning speed, and in Africa, one name stands out for aligning technology with grassroots opportunity — Mr. Fortune Blu Jnr., the founder of BluBox Academy.

Through his unique blend of creativity and innovation, he is not just keeping up with global media trends — he’s pioneering them locally.

BluBox Academy is helping Nigerian youths master the next generation of content creation tools — from CapCut and Adobe Premiere to AI-assisted editing, drone filming, mobile lighting systems, and smart audio gear.

In a world where a smartphone can replace a studio, BluBox is proving that access beats expensive equipment when paired with the right knowledge.

Technology is changing how stories are told — and who gets to tell them. At BluBox, we’re not just reacting to the industry, we’re creating the future we want to see,” says Blu Jnr.

But the mission goes beyond storytelling. It’s about job creation.

Every student trained is a potential freelancer, brand consultant, event documentarian, or social media strategist.

In just one year, BluBox Academy has trained over 1,200 creators, many of whom are now offering paid services and launching their own digital brands.

The Academy focuses on scalable, low-cost tools that reflect real market demand. This approach allows students — many of them job seekers or underemployed graduates — to build practical careers in a fast-growing creative economy powered by short-form video, mobile journalism, and brand storytelling.

This transformative approach will be on full display at the Tech X Creators Expo, coming up on August 23, 2025, at the Landmark Event Centre, Lagos. Attendees will engage with AI-powered tools, live content studios, mobile training labs, and panels featuring thought leaders like Somto Ifezue (PiggyVest), Snapcode, Sam Wright, Blu Junior, and Bar Shorted.

It’s not just the future of content — it’s the future of work, powered by creativity and accessible tech.
