Atlanta's biggest hip hop conference is back for 2023

A3C honors the impact of hip-hop culture and celebrates music, technology, entertainment, and beyond featuring gem-packed panels and fireside chats, memorable meet and greets, priceless photo moments, and so much more.

After delivering in person events from 2005 to 2019, A3C moved to virtual and hybrid formats in 2020 and 2021. Now, A3C is returning with a fully in-person live event in 2023. The conference will bring thousands of attendees from around the world to Atlanta to discover, network and learn from the innovators, entrepreneurs, and artists that drive the culture forward.

“Greenwood has a mission of supporting the culture by providing paths to financial freedom for minorities through community building, entrepreneurship, group economics and wealth building. We are pleased to be a strategic partner of A3C, which provides a platform to have important conversations about moving the culture forward,” said Ryan Glover, Co-founder and CEO of Greenwood. “The combined community of A3C, Greenwood, The Gathering Spot, and Valence is a powerful collective that will come together to celebrate Hip Hop, Atlanta, and the path to Black wealth creation.”

“Atlanta’s influence is felt everywhere. We have an authentic, powerful convergence of culture, music, tech, finance & entrepreneurship,” said Dr. Paul Judge, technology entrepreneur and investor. “A3C is the event that brings these diverse communities together for inspiration and innovation. We invite the world to come experience the magic of Atlanta and see what’s next.”
