The Inaugural Ethos Salon
November 2024
Venue
Landudno, Cape Town, SA.
In November 2024, Ethos Squared convened its first-ever gathering of visionary members of the diaspora. This intimate evening was designed to spark conversation, exchange ideas, and explore how we might reimagine connection, culture, and legacy across the globe.
From this salon of thinkers, creatives, and cultural leaders, the foundation of Ethos Squared was laid. Their insights and perspectives continue to shape our mission to connect the African diaspora through experiences, media, and access.
