LOCAL LIBRARIES IN IGNITING TECH / DIGITAL SKILLS DEVELOPMENT

We love this past collaboration with the City of Ekurhuleni @City_Ekurhuleni, building digital skills in different regions of the city.

The youngsters also tackled socially-relevant issues using technology.

[Tiyani Nghonyama @TiyaniTee]

The teachers just informed me that the school achieved 100% in the IT subject with 6 distinctions - most impressive for Limpopo. Our journey with the school started in May 2022. Super proud.

We forward to hosting a new breed this year, on their school trip to visit @Geekulcha.

THANK YOU FOR THE YEAR OF CODE

A lot of code was written which launched new startups through Hackathons. Thank you to all the Geeks across Africa and the mentors who helped make 2023, a great stepping stone for the tech scene in Africa.
