Jonathan Zahui is a manager, entrepreneur, and key strategist in the Ivorian and Francophone music industry. For more than a decade, he has dedicated his energy and vision to supporting leading artists while developing projects that help structure the cultural ecosystem.
His journey began in 2009, when he actively started managing the careers of emerging talents. Over time, he became a central figure in artist management in Côte d'Ivoire, particularly through his work with Kiff No Beat, the country's iconic rap group. Very quickly, he established himself as a trusted reference, skilled at combining artist management, communication strategies, and partnership negotiations.
In 2020, he founded Ultra Agence, which has since grown into a creative and strategic hub for music, communication, and entertainment. Through this platform, Jonathan has successfully managed major concerts, such as shows headlined by Didi B in Abidjan and Bouaké, while also leading large-scale communication campaigns for brands like Infinix and Etfonton Vieux Mentos, along with innovative projects in lifestyle and beverage marketing.
A visionary beyond borders, Jonathan has built strong networks in Europe, particularly in France, where he collaborates with organizations such as Believe Africa and APRODEMCI, and takes part in international events like Quai 54 and the MaMA Music & Convention in Paris.
Known for his professionalism and attention to detail, Jonathan navigates seamlessly between artistic production (music videos, lyric videos, album covers), large-scale event logistics (stage design, accreditations, security), and digital monetization (streaming platforms, certifications, and rights management).
Jonathan Zahui embodies a new generation of African managers, able to combine creativity, strategy, and leadership to amplify the voices of Ivorian and African artists on the global stage.
