Joburg, it’s your turn! Communiqué is coming to your city 🇿🇦
The third edition of Communiqué IRL is coming this October.
In January 2025, Communiqué IRL was just an idea. A simple concept for a networking event for the creative economy, a place where people could come to learn and interact with new ideas. But we also wanted to make it fun. In March, that idea came to life in Lagos. Then we took it to Nairobi in August.









And now, on October 30, we will be hosting the next edition of Communiqué IRL, our flagship networking event, in Johannesburg.
For this edition, we’ll be unpacking “Cultural currency: The rise of South Africa’s creator class,” with:
Boniswa Sidwaba – Head of Content Operations Sub-Saharan Africa, TikTok
Kayise Ngqula – CEO of KNN Media Pty Ltd & KNN Network
Jon Savage – CEO, Africa Podcast Network
Expect an evening of fresh ideas to chew on, light bites to snack on, and incredible people to connect with. And, as always, there’s a little surprise waiting for those in the room.
If you’re in Joburg and care about the future of the creative economy as much as we do, this one’s for you.
Also, if you’d like to partner with Communiqué to make this happen, kindly reply to this newsletter or send us an email: partnerships@communiquehq.com.
