Stonebwoy, Kudus, Afua Asantewaa & Berla Mundi make Avance Media’s 2023 50 Most Influential Young Ghanaians List
Leading African PR & Rating firm, Avance Media has announced the 9th publication of its annual 50 Most Influential Young Ghanaians list. This edition is marked by a significant stride towards gender inclusivity, with women occupying 32% of the coveted spots, representing a commendable improvement from previous editions.
The list also presents diverse talented and influential young Ghanaians who are uplifting the name of Ghana globally and represent inspiration, innovation, leadership, and social impact to the youth. The list includes notable personalities such as football stars Kudus Mohammed and Thomas Partey, and tech innovator Gregory Rockson. Young social media personalities such as Nana Tea and Olele Salvador are also recognized for their substantial contributions to Ghana’s cultural landscape.
In addition, the list features influential figures from politics, media, and sports, showcasing the multifaceted impact young Ghanaians are making on the world stage. Gary Al-Smith, Sam Nartey George (Hon), and Peace Hyde are among those recognized. Outstanding individuals like DanceGod Lloyd, Gyakie, Iñaki Williams, Wode Maya and Berla Mundi, are celebrated for excelling in their respective fields and contributing positively to Ghana’s global narrative.
Founder of Avance Media, Prince Akpah, expressed pride in the initiative’s growth over the past nine years. “The vision nine years ago was to inspire young people in Ghana with a list of Ghanaians doing great things, and we believe the list has been able to achieve that. This accomplished group of young individuals represents the future of Ghana. Their dedication, innovation, and leadership serve as inspiration to millions of young Ghanaians nationwide” said Akpah.
As Avance Media continues to spotlight the achievements of young Ghanaians, the 2023 edition of the “50 Most Influential Young Ghanaians” stands as a testament to the nation’s vibrant and dynamic youth, leaving an indelible mark on the global stage.
