Announcing Google Developers Festival (DevFest) 2017 for Southern and Eastern Nigeria – A Gathering of Entrepreneurs, Tech Enthusiasts, Developers, Designers, Creative Pros, Tech Industry Leaders, Students, Google Experts and IT Professionals in Aba.
Join us on Friday November 10, 2017 (8am – 5pm) at the El-Dorado Event Center Aba-Owerri Road Aba, Abia State for Strategic and Tactical Education, All day Hackathons, Codelabs, Hack Fair, Product pitches, Networking, and Relationship Building to take you to new heights in your tech journey!
Let me tell you…
As someone who wants to grow always, you know that you are never done learning and growing. In the ever-changing world of technology, you constantly have to be on the lookout for opportunities to expand your knowledge, connect with like-minded visionaries, and discover opportunities to grow your knowledge through events like DevFest.
You’ve most likely attended tech events before. And you’ve probably met some incredible people who have influenced you and inspired you.
But how much did you actually learn?
Most events focus on bringing in “gurus” – the big names in the industry. Everybody knows their names, and people will travel thousands of miles to hear them speak.
But in most cases, their presentations are full of theories, not real-world strategies and advice. Not to knock or shade these guys, because they’re obviously very good at what they do… but do you really want to invest several minutes and hours of your precious time in listening to theory?
At DevFest 2017, you’ll hear from awesome people getting it right in Nigeria’s technology industry. These are the guys who are actually out there building their own success every day… and they’re ready to share their insights, tips, strategies, and ideas with you!
Just check out this incredible list of speakers appearing at DevFest this year: Otemuyiwa Prosper – A Google Developer Expert and Full Stack Software Engineer Aniedi Udo Obong – Google Program Manager for Sub Saharan Africa Hanson Johnson – Founder of Start Innovation Hub and Country Mentor, Google Developer Groups. Daniel Chinagozi – Google Partner and Founder of Capacity Development International Dimgba Kalu – Software Engineer and Founder of ProJaro John Nnanna – Software Developer, GDG Aba Lead and CEO of Rad5 Tech Hub Ikemma Ifunanya – GDG UNN Lead and Women Techmakers UNN Uguru Igwe – User Experience Strategist and Co Organizer of GDG Aba
