YANGA!'s
parent company is Africa Media Works, a UK-registered media company. Africa Media
Works will develop a portfolio of business interests, in the field of Media and
Entertainment, and YANGA! is the company's first commercial venture.
Africa
Media Works' mission is to create an African Media Hub in London, where content
producers and broadcast professionals can harness the services, support and
scale of a multi-faceted media operation. We aim to create a Centre of African
Creative Excellence, where production facilities, media training, development
and distribution of content come together to strengthen and ‘scale’ the volume
and quality of African content around the world.
Our
business will reflect the fresh, authentic and progressive picture of African
media talent, and help counterbalance the often-negative perceptions presented
in Western media of modern-day Africa.
