This gathering becomes the first on the continent to bring podcasters, content creators, filmmakers, broadcasters, producers and emerging technology innovators together in one connected ecosystem, says the expo.

Hosted in the heart of Africa’s richest square mile, Cinegear World ushers in a new era of collaboration across the full value chain — from concept development to production, post-production, distribution and the fast-growing creator economy, aiming to be a fully integrated the industries shaping Africa’s creative future, says the expo.

Cinegear World aims to fill this gap with four verticals running simultaneously:

  • Africa's First Podcast Summit
  • Content Creator and Social Media Summit
  • film industry dialogue, and
  • Broadcast, Gear and Technology Expo. 

This unified, cross-industry model aims to allow Cinegear World to connect audio storytellers, short-form creators, broadcasters, filmmakers, production houses, technology innovators and emerging AI-driven tools in one dynamic environment, says the expo.

Featured topics include:

  • "The Future of African Storytelling: Podcasts, Shorts, and Films", and
  • "Leveraging AI and Emerging Tech for Creative Production". 

Attendees will also have the opportunity to be immersed in an interactive creative ecosystem, experiencing:

  • hands-on creative sessions such as live podcast recordings and expert-led masterclasses
  • technology demonstrations, from cinema cameras and audio equipment to AI editing tools and virtual production techniques
  • high impact networking opportunities, connecting creators, broadcasters, filmmakers, institution and brands through matchmaking sessions and collaboration zones, and
  • interactive showcases from exhibiting brands.

"Africa has never had a single platform where podcasters, content creators, filmmakers, broadcasters and the tech community stand under one roof — until now. Cinegear World is not just a summit; it's the convergence point where the entire creative ecosystem finally meets to shape a shared African future," says the Event Director of Africa Cinegear World.

Registration for all attendees is now open at and will be shared across official Cinegear World social media platforms. Media professionals, creators, broadcasters, producers, students and industry stakeholders are invited to be part of this historic first edition, concludes the expo.
