Built in Botswana. Built for Africa.
CentreEvents is the events management platform designed for organisers across Southern Africa who need professional tools without enterprise complexity or European price tags.
Our story
Where this started.
CentreEvents is a product of Digital Thread, a Botswana-based technology company. We built this platform after watching talented event organisers lose hours to spreadsheets, paper registration lists, and WhatsApp group confirmations. Events in Botswana, South Africa, Namibia, Zambia, and Zimbabwe deserve the same infrastructure that powers conferences in London and New York, built for local connections, local currencies, and local support.
What we believe
Three things we will not compromise on.
Events are where communities are built
Every conference, gala, and workshop creates connection that cannot happen on a screen. Our job is to make the logistics invisible so the experience can be extraordinary.
Local support is not optional
When your event is tomorrow and something goes wrong, you need someone in your timezone. Our team is here.
Pricing should be honest
No per-ticket fees. No platform commissions. No surprises on invoice day.
