Hackathon in Lagos,Nigeria
Our outreach kicked off in a big way with a successful hackathon day that left us all inspired and excited about the future of technology. The energy, creativity, and dedication displayed by the participants were nothing short of amazing. This event was an incredible opportunity for young women to showcase their tech skills, collaborate in teams, and push the boundaries of what they thought was possible.
We were thrilled to have judges from Microsoft Nigeria join us for the event, bringing their wealth of knowledge and expertise to assess the projects. Their valuable feedback and insights helped the participants refine their ideas, challenge their thinking, and ultimately elevate the quality of their work. A huge thank you to the judges for their time and commitment to helping these young women succeed!
In addition to the judges, we had an amazing group of coaches who worked closely with the teams, providing guidance, support, and encouragement throughout the day. The coaches played an integral role in helping the participants navigate challenges, think critically, and build innovative solutions.
