Since 2008, Akademia has been helping creative individuals unlock their unique vision, harness their true potential, achieve greater exposure and navigate a successful path through a dynamic and challenging industry landscape.

Because the founders are fluent in the language of both business and art, they are uniquely positioned to understand the needs of both groups. This is how Akademia has been able to create a virtuous cycle between benefactors, corporations and governments, whose actions shape the present terrain, and the creative community, whose imagination shapes the future.
