Flutterwave, Africa’s leading payments technology company, has launched the Flutterwave Accelerate Workshop, a two-day virtual coaching program aimed at empowering young Africans with the practical skills necessary to thrive in the tech industry.
The workshop is tailored for university students, recent graduates, and early-career professionals, offering direct access to industry experts in four high-demand fields: Data Privacy and Cybersecurity, Design, Marketing, and Product Management. The sessions will be facilitated by accomplished tech professionals from both within and outside of Flutterwave, including Ted Oladele, CEO of Mira and former VP of Design & Product at Flutterwave; Noel Ozoemena, Senior Manager of Branding and Storytelling; Nujinim Egwegbete-Odukwu, Head of Infrastructure Security; Abisola Epoyun, Data Privacy Manager; and Oluwatobiloba Animashaun, Product Manager at Flutterwave.
This initiative is rooted in Flutterwave’s belief that granting youth access and opportunity has the power to unlock Africa’s potential. The company acknowledges that the continent’s most valuable asset is its young, dynamic population and remains dedicated to fostering innovation through both financial solutions and talent development programs.
