Creative Chaos Accra : The Money Edition

What is your biggest money problem right now?

Making more of it. Managing what you already have. Finding customers. Funding your idea. Getting people to pay what your work is worth.

You're not the only one figuring it out.

Creative Chaos: The Exchange — Accra

Saturday 26 September · 11am–3pm · Jambo Spaces , Tse Addo

This is not another event where you sit down, listen to speakers, and go home with a notebook you never open again. You participate. You trade. You create. You solve problems. You meet people.

What actually happens

1. You'll get handed something small (a paper clip, a pen,etc) and be challenged to trade your way up to something worth more. No cash. Just your creativity, confidence and negotiation against a room of strangers. Would you succeed? You'll find out.
2. You'll sit in a circle where people pool what they have( a skill, a contact, an hour, a space) and one person walks away with the pot. Think Susu, minus the money.
3. If you brought an unfinished idea, you'll build a team and a rough version on the spot and try to sell it to real people standing right there. Some will buy. Some will tell you why they didn't. Both are worth the ticket.
4. And the money problem you've never said out loud? You undercharge, a client owes you, you can't price your own work? Bring it! We solve real ones live, on the day.

You should come if you want to make more money from your work, you're building something, you're looking for collaborators, you want practical ideas instead of empty motivation, or you just enjoy meeting interesting people. Creators, founders, freelancers, artists, students, and anyone ambitious.

Nobody takes a stage. No panels, no speakers, no gatekeepers. There's no mic and no audience. "Everyone participates" just means you're doing things, not watching them.

It's real. Three Accra editions. More than 300 people across all editions. One growing community of creators, founders, artists and curious minds. Kumasi is the first stop of a six-city Pan-African tour. Accra, Lagos, Abuja, Nairobi and Kigali follow.

Your Regular ticket also gets you a Crowdpen Plus membership for 2 months on the house, the Africa community group, your own shareable ticket graphic and perks from our partners.

Your Supporter ticket gets you everything in the Regular plus 2 months access to the Chaos Club

Your Patron ticket gets you 3 months access to the Chaos Club plus recognition as an event supporter
