Publicis Groupe Africa has welcomed a new cohort of interns into its Le Cubs Programme, reaffirming its commitment to nurturing the next generation of creative leaders across the continent.
Now in its fifth year, the fully funded and accredited graduate initiative continues to bridge the gap between academic learning and the demands of the advertising and marketing industries. The programme is run in partnership with the Red & Yellow School of Business.
Le Cubs offers young creatives hands-on experience and real-world training to help launch their careers in the industry, according to the agency.
“For five years, the Le Cubs internship programme has served as a launchpad for talent, innovation and leadership. We are proud to celebrate this fresh milestone and the incredible individuals who have helped shape our success. We are also excited to see what the 2025 interns will accomplish,” says Koo Govender, CEO of Publicis Groupe Africa.
This year’s intake brings renewed energy and promise, beginning a carefully structured development journey aligned with their individual aspirations.
“At Publicis Groupe Africa, creativity is at the heart of everything we do. And through the Le Cubs programme, we can ensure our continued commitment to creativity by investing in the next generation of talent, giving them the platform to make their mark,” says the organisation’s Chief Creative Officer.
The Le Cubs onboarding experience includes hands-on client work, exposure to different parts of the business, leadership development, and a supportive environment that fosters ongoing learning and growth, the agency adds.
Reflecting on her experience so far, intern Nomakhosi Lekhanya shares, "It's been a great combination of creative energy and professional growth. Each day presents a new opportunity to dive into diverse projects, from proactive sessions that ignite fresh ideas to hands-on experience crafting visual concepts. The environment is both challenging and supportive, where seasoned professionals generously share their expertise, fostering a culture of learning."
Lekhanya adds, "I aim to leave with a head full of inspiration and a heart full of passion that only comes from being immersed in the creative fire."
