Adobe is starting a diversity campaign and several multimedia initiatives to amplify new voices and creators.
The new platform, Diverse Voices, was created to highlight diverse and unique creators in the field. The landing page spotlights artists, introduces their medium, showcases their inspirations, and features their creative process as well as their art. All artists highlighted are able to express their inspirations, and given an editorial platform to share their work.
“At Adobe, we are committed to supporting, elevating and amplifying underrepresented creators, so the world can see, learn, and benefit from diverse perspectives,” the company said in a statement.
In a statement announcing the new fellows, Adobe Executive Vice President Ann Lewnes reiterated the company’s commitment to increased diversity in art and film.
“Creativity has the power to unite us, help us cope, inspire us and drive positive change in the world,” she said. “But, creativity needs to be more accessible to, and celebrated by, every one of us –regardless of race, ethnicity, ability, gender or sexual orientation. At Adobe, we believe it is our responsibility to give diverse voices a platform to share their stories, especially in this unprecedented moment, and we are proud to partner with the Sundance Institute to create greater opportunity for female filmmakers.”
In addition to the film fellowships, Adobe is also partnering with The New York Times’s T Magazine to create a unique issue highlighting female creators. The digital issue, T Presents: The 15 Creative Women for Our Time, “showcases the vibrant spectrum of perspectives from female creators from all around the world,” as well as current Adobe creators.
The new initiatives aren’t Adobe’s first forays into uplifting diverse creators.
At the beginning of 2020, Adobe launched the Women at Sundance fellowship, a historic partnership with the film institute to provide 11 people who identify as women a yearlong mentorship and a $5,000 cash grant.

What's happened? This week, China's Quality Certification Center released information about a battery (EB-BS04898ABY) with a maximum capacity of 4,855mAh. That's the same capacity as was previously seen in the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, and fans have taken this certification to mean the Galaxy S26 Ultra will not see a capacity increase after all.
The Samsung Galaxy Ultra models have had the same battery capacity for the last five years.
What's happened? Samsung has officially announced the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite, a budget-friendly alternative to the Galaxy Tab S10. The device has been rumored for months, but this is the first time Samsung has officially acknowledged its existence.
The Galaxy Tab S10 Lite will have a 10.9-inch display and a peak brightness of 600 nits — a bit on the lower side, versus the iPad Pro's maximum brightness of 1,600 nits.
