Indie Hackers Cape Town l a new chapter #48
Aston Holmes, First Floor, Northbank Building, 1 N Bank Ln, Century City, Unit 2, Cape Town, ZAIndie Hackers Cape Town – First Event of the Year
26 February
We’re kicking off our first Indie Hackers Cape Town event of the year and bringing together people who love building things, whether that’s products, companies, experiments, side projects, or entirely new paths.
WHAT & WHY
Indie Hackers is a room for people who are actually building profitable things on the internet
Side projects, bootstrapped businesses, experiments, early traction, ugly MVPs, half-working systems that still ship — that’s the energy. We come together to trade real stories, surface useful friction, and talk about the things that actually move the needle.
This isn’t small talk or motivational fluff. The conversations go deep because the people in the room are in it — building, learning, breaking, fixing. The goal is simple: sharper thinking, better decisions, and fewer mistakes made alone.
If you’re here to learn, share honestly, and connect with people who care more about shipping than posturing, you’ll fit right in.
When we say “makers”, we mean it broadly and intentionally. Developers, designers, marketers, operators, finance people, lawyers, students — anyone contributing to the messy reality of building businesses. Titles don’t matter. Output does.

FORMAT
We run a Lean Coffee format because it respects time and intelligence.
You suggest the topics. The room votes. The conversations follow the signal.
No panels. No pitches. No predetermined agenda. Just focused discussions shaped by what the people in the room actually care about that night.
Come curious. Come opinionated. Come ready to contribute. And if you’ve brought someone before, bring them again.

VENUE
We’re hosted at Aston Holmes’s office in Century City.
Yes, it’s a great space. Yes, it’s very Instagrammable. More importantly, it’s a solid room for good conversations.⸻
