7in7 Digital Nomad Conference – September 2023 (Africa)

Graphical user interface  Description automatically generated with low confidence

7in7 is one of the most forward-thinking digital nomad events out there. They make sure to amplify the voices of underrepresented nomads, and 75% of the team and attendees are women!

Why 7in7? Because the company behind it aims to hold SEVEN digital nomad conferenced on SEVEN different continents within SEVEN years. This 2023 will be 7in7’s 6th year and continent, which is said to be held in Africa this September.

Though don’t think that means you can just waltz in; this event is exclusively for those with over a year of nomad experience under their belt. That way, you know you’ll be making quality connections with people who aren’t going to run back to the office any time soon. 

7in7 is quite different to some of the other nomad events, because it only allows 100 people through its doors. By having limited numbers, they can make the event so much more engaging and personal, and you don’t feel lost in a sea of high-flying entrepreneurs. The event has parties, workshops, lunches, panels, and pretty much anything you could want out of a nomad event!
