Lets throw it back to Monday’s Developer Info Session & Round Table, where our founder Ernesto and young tech minds got real about AI and its impact on developers, and how we can use it to our advantage. Great conversations, sharp questions, and definitely more to come. 👀 #AI

Nairobi was one for the books! Speed networking, new connections, and real insights from StartHub Africa and our founder Ernesto Spruyt on pitching, positioning and unlocking opportunities. The energy was 🔥 and we’re just getting started! Kampala, you’re next! 🇺🇬

Over the past few weeks, we've watched founders challenge ideas, learn from each other, and grow in confidence. Now comes one of the most exciting moments of the journey.

For our founders, this is more than an event. It's a chance to pitch ideas, build relationships, explore internships, and meet the people who could become partners in their journey. The countdown is on, and we can't wait to show you what's in store. #TechWingsAfrica

Not every founder begins with funding, clarity, or a perfect idea. So why are we all told to follow the same path? TechWings Africa (TWA) is doing it differently. Two tracks. Built for where you actually are: Still exploring, questioning, figuring it out? Future Founders Track → vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… Already building and need structure + momentum? Build Now Track → vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… Applications are OPEN. #TechWingsAfrica #StarthubAfrica #BuildInPublic #Founders #Entrepreneurship #StartupJourney

Most people get stuck following advice meant for a different stage. Exploring? “Build fast” feels like pressure. Building? “Keep learning” feels like hiding. So we simplified it: Future Founders (clarity): vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… Build Now (execution): vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… Find your stage. Take the right step. #Startups #BuildInPublic

Not everyone starts at the same place—and that’s okay. That’s why Tech Wings Africa (TWA) has two tracks: Got an idea but not sure where to start? → Future Founders Already building something? → Build Now Different starting points, same goal—build something real. Applications are open 👇 Future Founders: vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… Build Now: vc4a.com/tunga/techwings-afr… #TechWingsAfrica #BuildInPublic

"Should I do Frontend or Full Stack?" Wrong question. The right question is: what kind of problem-solver are you? 🧵 A thread.

Know yourself. Pick your path. Start building. That's it. That's the whole strategy.

"I was hesitant to participate as a student..." 🎓 Cindy Ogutu is a Full-Stack Developer studying at Strathmore. She pushed past the hesitation, attended our Nairobi event, and walked away with a crucial lesson: Assertiveness is key. 🔑 Having the skills isn't enough. You have to know how to pitch your capabilities and advocate for yourself in the interview room. 🗣️📈 Students, your voice matters in these spaces. Show up! 🚀 #TungaAcademy #WomenInTech #DevLife #CareerTips #KenyaTech
