Seven Ghanaian designers selected for the African Fashion Futures Incubator program.

Seven fashion designers based in Ghana have been selected for the African Fashion Futures Incubator. The program designed by Impact Fund For African Creatives in collaboration with the African Fashion Foundation and Seedstars seeks to equip upcoming designers/brands with the necessary skills and resources.

The designers selected from Ghana include Travis Obeng-Casper (AJABENG), Jason Jermaine Asiedu (Jermaine Bleu), K**i Kubi (PALM WINE IceCREAM), Kelvin Vincent (Anku Studio), Jafaru Larry, Nadia Eman Ibrahim (Tabou) and George Tetteh (Atto Tetteh). The seven others are from Nigeria (6) and Rwanda (1).

The companies will undergo a stringent 12-month programme to ensure they tick the critical boxes for investors. Companies will learn to create a brand founded on ethical principles and grow and flourish in Africa and internationally.

The incubator is an initiative of The African Fashion Foundation, a non-profit that invests in early-stage SMEs in the creative sector in Africa. Led by the United Nations Environment Program Goodwill Ambassador for the Creative Economy, Roberta Annan, the foundation has graduated over 24 alumni and dispersed over $1.3 million in grant funding. She co-founded IFFAC Investment Holdings, aimed at supporting and investing in Africa’s creative and lifestyle industries. Roberta is also the Founder of Frallain Group, a luxury accelerator based in New York aimed at pushing African brands. She is also the Co-founder of Semblance World, a new immersive virtual platform that aims to reimagine digital experiences for brands and consumers in the global fashion industry.

Digital lens manufacturer Gokals Ani launches the “eyekon” lens that provides for both the eye and lifestyle.

Gokals Ani Ltd., a digital lens manufacturer, has recently launched a new product, “eyekon” lens, which is custom-made to suit users' specific needs and daily activities.

The thinner lenses are tailored to the person's occupation, giving them a better vision for their daily activities. For example, if a person is a truck driver, the lens will have a broader section to accommodate their need for distance vision. On the other hand, if a person reads more, the lens will have a bigger reading section.

According to Ashish L. Gokaldas, the Business Manager of Ani Limited, these lenses are different from the occupational lenses the company produces for specific purposes. The “eyekon” lenses are made using software with artificial intelligence and robotics, which reduces the chances of error to less than one per cent by minimizing human interaction. The company could deliver its products promptly, and in the case of special high-index lenses, for example, it could deliver within 24 hours. The manufacturer, he said, could produce about 400 pairs of lenses a day.

Gokals Ltd. is a fourth-generation family-owned business with expertise in Pharmaceuticals, Veterinary, Opticals, and Natural Wellness/Beauty.
