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.

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.

Reflecting on an incredible Saturday at @mlabsa with the bright minds of Mbhetsa Academy, based in Giyani, Limpopo!
We were thrilled to witness the enthusiasm and eagerness of the learners as they delved into coding and electronics sessions throughout the day.

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.
