Aim of the TekNexus Africa Tech Summit
Glory Olamigoke emphasized the belief that nurturing tech talents can unlock solutions to Africa’s greatest challenges. The summit organized by TekNexus Africa aims to inspire and equip tech professionals to drive positive change and foster growth within Africa’s tech ecosystem. This aligns with the United Nations’ recognition of Africa’s young population, with 70% of sub-Saharan Africa being under the age of 30.
Additionally, a report by the International Finance Corporation (IFC) predicts that by 2030, approximately 230 million jobs in Sub-Saharan Africa will require some level of digital skills. These statistics highlight the immense potential for digital and tech skill development among young individuals in Africa.
TekNexus Africa is actively leading the revolution in this field by providing mentorship and support through its carefully curated programs and initiatives, which are also in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals 4 and 8. To Register follow this link
