InsightsOut Africa Masterclass Series [Nigeria]

​This event is a three-day event, running from November 2 - 4, 2026.

​The InsightsOut Africa consortium—led by CcHUB in partnership with Andani Africa, HEVA Fund, New Art Exchange and Tom Fleming Creative Consultancy (TFCC)—invites creative hub leaders from across the continent to a high-impact masterclass series.

​This convening is designed to bridge the structural and knowledge gaps in Africa’s Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs). We are moving beyond theory to equip practitioners with the practical tools and strategic frameworks needed to build sustainable, investment-ready creative hubs.

​Why Join Us?

​Creative hubs are the backbone of African innovation, yet they often face fragmented ecosystems. This series offers:

• ​Expert Sessions: Governance, sustainable financing, and data infrastructure.

• ​Hub-to-Hub Exchange Grants: An opportunity to access funded residencies in the UK.

• ​Strategic Influence: Help shape Nigeria national approach to hub sustainability.

• ​The Creative Hubs Handbook: Contribute to creating resources for African hub managers.

​Who Should Attend?

​We are looking for Lagos-based leaders and managers of physical, virtual & hybrid:

• ​Creative hubs

• ​Art centers, and galleries.

• ​Fashion collectives and creative communities.

• ​Accelerators, training institutions, and capacity-building organizations.

​Application Deadline: October 18, 2026

Venue will be communicated to selected applicants.
