Myarts international
MyArts International was founded in 2009 with a vision to create platforms that connect people, businesses, industries, and nations through meaningful engagement and opportunity. What began as an initiative to showcase Africa's creative excellence has evolved into a multifaceted corporate events, trade facilitation, investment promotion, and economic development company operating across local and international markets..
Over the years, we have built a reputation for delivering high-impact projects that bring together government leaders, business executives, investors, entrepreneurs, development agencies, and communities. Our work is centred on creating strategic platforms that stimulate economic growth, facilitate market access, encourage investment, and foster collaboration across sectors. Through conferences, trade missions, exhibitions, business forums, and stakeholder engagement initiatives, we help our partners transform ideas into sustainable outcomes.
One of our flagship initiatives is the MSME Growth Summit, a premier business and enterprise development platform designed to empower micro, small and medium enterprises through access to markets, investment opportunities, strategic partnerships, capacity building, and business networking. The summit brought together entrepreneurs, corporate leaders, government institutions, financiers, and development partners to address key challenges facing the SME sector while creating pathways for growth, innovation, and economic participation. The initiative has become an important platform for job creation and promoting entrepreneurship and strengthening the role of SMEs in economic development.
Our commitment to connecting African businesses with global opportunities has also seen us facilitate international trade and market access initiatives. Through participation in trade missions, investment forums, and international business engagements, we have helped African enterprises explore new markets, establish strategic partnerships, and build relationships with buyers, investors, and industry stakeholders across various regions. Notable engagements have included facilitating African business participation in international platforms such as Russia's U'Fashion Lab International Fashion Week, where brands such as MaXhosa and Urban Zulu were introduced to global audiences, buyers, and commercial opportunities. These experiences reflect our broader approach of positioning African products, services, and innovation within international markets.
Equally important to our journey has been our role in driving community and economic development initiatives. Through programmes such as the Mangaung Youth Empowerment Week, which has successfully impacted young people over numerous editions, we have created platforms that support entrepreneurship, skills development, mentorship, and leadership. These initiatives reflect our belief that sustainable economic growth begins with empowering people and creating opportunities at grassroots level.
Today, MyArts International stands as a bridge between business, government, investment, and opportunity. We are more than event organisers, we are facilitators of growth, architects of strategic partnerships, and catalysts for economic development. Our mission is to create impactful platforms that connect stakeholders, unlock opportunities, and contribute to the advancement of Africa's economy on the global stage.
