About the Dentsu School Of Influence
Applications Now Open
Dentsu Ghana invites emerging creators to apply for the Dentsu School of Influence (DSOI), a creator development programme designed to help Ghana's next generation of influencers turn creativity into sustainable careers.
At the heart of the programme is One Big Week, an immersive, in-person learning experience taking place in Accra from 24th to 28th August 2026. Selected creators will step into a real agency environment, work on practical briefs, receive mentorship from industry experts and develop the creative, strategic and commercial skills needed to build lasting careers in the creator economy.
The programme culminates in Pitch Day on 5th September, where participants will present themselves to dentsu clients and leading brands.
Originally launched by dentsu South Africa in 2023, the Dentsu School of Influence has expanded across multiple markets, including Kenya, and now arrives in Ghana for its very first cohort.
This is not about chasing short-term virality. It's about building the skills, confidence and industry knowledge to turn influence into opportunity.
