Another hackathon. Another African problem to solve. 📡🇰🇪
Today, I’m at Africa’s Talking Open Hackathon Telecommunications.
We’re exploring how technology can make communication more accessible, reliable and useful across Africa.

The challenge is bigger than just connectivity.
It’s about how people actually access, use and experience telecom services.
So we’re digging deeper,
What can we build that solves a real problem
The brainstorming has begun. 👀📡
#BuildWithAT#ATCommunityNBO#FollowNerds
We found our angle. 👀
Now it’s no longer just about identifying the problem we’re thinking about what we can actually build around it.
The idea is taking shape. 📡🛠️
#BuildWithAT#ATCommunityNBO#FollowNerds
The idea is out of the notebook. 👀
Now comes the hard part: turning it into something that actually works.
Code. Test. Break. Fix. Repeat. 🛠️📡
We’re getting closer.

🚀 Meet NEXA our telecom innovation built at the Africa’s Talking Open Hackathon.
From identifying a real connectivity challenge to turning an idea into a prototype, we went from 👀 → 💡 → 💻 → 🚀.
This is just the beginning.

For Demo Tuesday, @codewitheugenee took us through SkillSync, a platform that helps students turn their academic work into career-ready skills.
Students upload their notes, assignments, projects or transcripts and SkillSync identifies the skills they’ve demonstrated and matches them to real-world career requirements.
From there, they can see:
1. Which skills they already have
2. How they match a target career
3. Where the gaps are
4. What they need to learn next
For many learners across Kenya, the challenge is knowing how what they’ve learned translates into the skills employers are looking for.
SkillSync is helping bridge that gap by turning coursework into verifiable career evidence.
