'Are there more genuine* ways to link a brand to a country hosting the world cup, other than a free inflatable with a beer pack?'(*effective, honest, respectful,..)

Sowetolab objects were shown in Milan Design Week, at Artbygeneva and at DMY Berlin.

  

 Why do we do this?

Addictlab Soweto, or short Sowetolab.com, wants to discover and accelerate creative talent, and by doing so, create sustainable changes for Soweto & South  African society.

JanVan Mol, founder Addictlab.com : "Sowetolab.com should be proof of the fact that creativity is not about hype or fashion, but is an asset that can help to survive & construct."

'I believe Addictlab should be a bottom up system: proving that creative talent is everywhere, trying to accelerate that talent where possible, and creating a positive change in the lives of people involved, while offering innovation to third parties. If ever I thought Addictlab could implement sustainable changes to people in certain cultures and surroundings, Addictlab Soweto might very well be it.'
