When creatives gather, ideas spark and multiply. Such was the case when Cardtonic assembled 30 of the most influential Nigerian designers in a single room. An invite-only event comprising the Mixer and a design challenge.

The conversations centred on the latest design trends following the wave of AI disruptions. They discussed Cardtonic’s Design is Changing report, and launched the Perfectly Imperfect Challenge with prize money to reward creatives.

It was a gathering that demonstrated Cardtonic’s increasing relevance in the creative discourse. It didn’t just create a spark; it engaged and backed local talents with real stakes. Here is how Cardtonic is investing in the Nigerian creative community.

The MIXER: What went down

It was an event to remember. The designers trickled in and found their clique. And of course, the awkward silence just before the icebreaker. Introductions and games followed, which helped to loosen up the atmosphere and spark conversations.
