Media entrepreneur, journalist, storyteller and host of #WithChude, Chude Jideonwo, is set to facilitate a practical session at CREATOR HQ 2026, a three-day immersive conference and creator incubator designed to equip female digital creators with the knowledge, tools, networks and commercial opportunities required to build sustainable creative businesses in partnership with Terra Academy for the Arts (TAFTA). Jideonwo will lead a session titled “Pricing Yourself – Turning Value into Revenue” on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, from 10:00am to 10:45am, helping participants develop greater confidence in understanding the value of their work, setting appropriate prices and negotiating for better opportunities.
Jideonwo brings more than two decades of experience across media, storytelling, entrepreneurship and the creative economy, having built and led platforms and businesses within Africa’s media and communications landscape. His participation present creators an opportunity to engage with the commercial realities of creative work and consider how their skills, ideas and audience can be translated into sustainable value.
CREATOR HQ 2026 is specifically designed to move female creators beyond seeing content creation as an informal online activity and towards treating it as a structured creative enterprise requiring strong production systems, audience development, protection and commercialisation. The programme addresses critical areas including digital safety and privacy, intellectual property protection, platform and algorithm knowledge, professional production, monetisation, brand and industry connections, and global payment and creator-economy opportunities. Against this backdrop, Jideonwo’s session on pricing and revenue speaks directly to one of the central challenges of building a sustainable creator business: recognising the value of what you create and having the confidence and structure to charge for it.
