Twiva Named Top Brand Leading Digital Transformation in Media & Creator Economy in 2026

Twiva has been named the Top Brand Leading Digital Transformation in Media & Creator Economy at the Digitally Fit Awards 2026.

The award was presented at the Digitally Fit Awards ceremony held on 28 August 2026 at the Argyle Grand Hotel in Nairobi, bringing together brands, business leaders, innovators, and digital changemakers shaping the future of Kenya’s digital economy.

For us, this recognition is more than a trophy.

It represents the work Twiva has been doing to transform how creators earn, how businesses market, and how technology connects influence with commerce.

Transforming the Creator Economy Beyond Content

The creator economy has evolved.

Being a creator is no longer simply about posting content and building an audience. Today, creators are building communities, influencing purchase decisions, selling products, partnering with brands and creating businesses around their digital influence.

But growth has also exposed a major challenge.

Many creators have influence but lack the infrastructure to monetise it consistently. Many brands understand the value of creators but struggle to find, manage and measure creator-led campaigns at scale.

That is the gap Twiva is helping to close.

Twiva is building an ecosystem where creators, businesses, brands and consumers can connect through technology, content and commerce.

Our mission goes beyond helping creators get campaigns. We are focused on supporting their journey towards becoming successful digital entrepreneurs.

Where Media Meets Commerce

Digital transformation in media is not simply about moving content from traditional platforms to social media.

It is about changing how value is created.

A creator can now become a media channel.

A social post can become a storefront.

A recommendation can influence a purchasing decision.

A community can become a business.

That is where the future is heading.

Twiva sits at the intersection of media, creators, and commerce, building tools and opportunities that help turn digital influence into measurable economic value.

Through our growing ecosystem, we continue to explore new ways for creators and businesses to collaborate, transact and grow.

Because the future of media will not only be about who gets attention.

It will increasingly be about who can turn attention into opportunity.

Digital Transformation Must Create Real Value

Technology alone is not transformation.

A platform can have impressive features and still fail to create meaningful impact.

Real digital transformation happens when technology changes how people access opportunities, earn income, build businesses and participate in the economy.

For Twiva, that means creating solutions that help:

  • Creators discover opportunities and monetise their influence
  • Brands access authentic creator-led marketing
  • Businesses reach customers through social commerce
  • Digital entrepreneurs build sustainable businesses
  • Communities participate in the growing digital economy

This is the transformation we believe in.

One where technology is not simply impressive, but useful.

One where creators are not just participants in the digital economy, but owners and builders within it.

A Win Shared With Our Community

This award belongs to more than Twiva.

It belongs to every creator who has taken a chance on the platform.

Every business that has trusted creator-led marketing.

Every partner that has worked with us to unlock new opportunities.

And every member of the Twiva team who continues to believe that Africa’s digital economy can be bigger, more inclusive and more connected.

It has taken collaboration, experimentation, resilience and sometimes getting things wrong before figuring out how to get them right.

This recognition is a celebration of that journey.

What Comes Next?

The creator economy is still evolving. Social commerce is still expanding. Digital entrepreneurs are finding new ways to build businesses. Technology is creating entirely new opportunities that did not exist a few years ago.

The question is no longer whether the creator economy will shape the future of business.

It already is.

The bigger question is whether Africa will build the platforms, infrastructure and ecosystems needed to ensure that creators and businesses can fully benefit from that future.

At Twiva, we intend to keep building.

More opportunities.

More connections.

More tools.

More pathways for creators and businesses to grow.

This award is a reminder that the work matters.

And that the journey is far from over.

We are proud of how far we have come and even more excited about where we are going.

The future of the creator economy is being built now. And we’re here to help build it.
