@webrand_2025 Our first article on this will be live by the end of the week.

[Design Lever Inc @designleverinc]

Africa has 1.35M+ designers. The design services market is worth $323 million. Each designer contributed ~$239 in 2024.

A large workforce does not automatically produce a mature industry. Market value also depends on leadership, business integration… 🧵

@IniAbiodun Hi Ini, not yet but our first and baseline report will be out before the end of the quarter.

[Adésóyè @victorfatanmi]

As you go on about your week starting today, these are 5 humbling realities every true leader must face

1. The sacredness of the responsibility and its impact on society
2. The impact of your choices and the risk of your delusion
3. The matrix of Imperfection
4. The amplified weight of your opinion and voice
5. The enablement of your corporate ego

When you connect these five realities, you see the true, sobering landscape of leadership.

Leadership is the sacred management of human lives, executed through high-stakes choices where you could easily be wrong, utilizing an inherently imperfect team, while speaking with a voice that carries dangerous weight, all while fighting an ecosystem designed to distort your ego.

@tshumaosmond Very much where the next steps is. We gather data and track the continent’s progress from this baseline

[Design Lever Inc @designleverinc]

Africa's design services market generated $323M in 2024. The UK generated $11.85B, and the US, $90B; proving that design becomes infra-structurally valuable through leadership, standards, evidence, and accountability. That is the market Design Lever is building.

African Designers they said we generated $323 million dollar in 2024 that’s with less infrastructure and a failed government.

There’s room for improvement we can do more🔥

I’m done playing defense for design. I’m taking my future into my hands and doing my best to influence, grow and track the market.

For the role we'd be hiring soon to lead documentation, I won't be hiring someone who simply has the skill to write and then instructing them to document. I would be finding someone who already unbelievably documents their life in ways that almost makes you feel they're crazy.

Education is the way forward. That’s a fact.

[Design Lever Inc @designleverinc]

@tywardaddy So are we. A lot will unfold in the coming weeks

[Design Lever Inc @designleverinc]

At Design Lever, we're building the infrastructure. From executive leadership, to research, to education, to opportunities, because great design should be measured by more than aesthetics, it should move businesses forward…making design count.

If African designers are given the same platform and infrastructure other designers in America, Europe and Asia get, they won't see our backs at all.

That time is coming.

[betrand @0xCryptoSavant]

It's so amazing to see that systems are being built around how design is and should be not just in Nigeria but Africa. @designleverinc kudos!!!
