Somerset House resident, Content is Queen, crowned at DBACE awards

At Somerset House, creativity thrives when bold ideas meet the right support systems. This truth was powerfully affirmed when Content is Queen, one of our very own residents, was named a winner at this year’s Deutsche Bank Awards for Creative Entrepreneurs (DBACE).

Founded by Imriel Morgan, Content is Queen has carved out a mission that speaks directly to the future of media: empowering overlooked creators from around the globe to build sustainable audio careers. Beyond supporting emerging voices, they are also helping brands escape the echo chamber of closed networks, connecting them with audiences too often left out of the mainstream. The result? Smarter campaigns, deeper impact, and a stronger cultural exchange.

At Somerset House, their presence has been transformative. Operating the recording studio within Makerversity, they have provided a vital resource for makers, designers, and digital innovators who call this space home. Most recently, during our August Upgrade Yourself Monthly, Content is Queen delivered a hands-on session guiding aspiring podcasters through the crucial steps of launching a professional show. It was a roadmap not just to podcasting, but to creative independence.

Their recognition at DBACE is more than an individual achievement, it’s a reminder of the power of community, collaboration, and mission-driven work. Content is Queen exemplifies the values we champion: inclusivity, innovation, and the belief that creative industries flourish when more voices are heard.

Congratulations to Imriel and the entire team. This is only the beginning of what promises to be an extraordinary journey.
