Microsoft 4Afrika Initiative
Hello networking members, ever heard of the incredible Microsoft 4Afrika Initiative?
February 2013 saw the launch of the Microsoft 4Afrika Initiative and was created on the basis that technology can speed up Africa’s growth and in turn, Africa can enhance technology innovation. I believe that developers have the potential to resolve local and global challenges that countries in Africa face, hence why we are growing our investments even further towards African developers.
Don’t miss out on the opportunity to be part of Microsoft developers’ community by contributing and getting involved in any of the forthcoming Microsoft Development Camps in Africa (2013). Watch out for these camps in the following African countries:
- Nigeria
