The Program

Built in two movements.

The first reaches breadth — inspiring hundreds of high school students with a vision of what ethical tech careers can look like. The second goes deep — turning the most motivated 25 into builders.

Phase One
Tech Advocacy Program
2 Weeks · 5 Public High Schools · ~500 Students

Classroom visits to introduce students to ethical careers in software, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity. Founder-led storytelling, live build demos, and panels with young Ghanaian engineers.

  • Personal narrative sessions: temptation, choice, trajectory
  • 20-minute live builds (chatbots, image classifiers, translators)
  • "Same Skills, Two Futures" career mapping module
  • Panels with engineers from Bismuth, MEST, Turntabl
  • Transparent audition for bootcamp seats
Phase Two
Innovators Bootcamp
3 Weeks · 25 Students · Full-time

Intensive technical training mirroring real engineering teams. Students learn modern stacks, ship working products, and pitch to a panel of investors and technology leaders on Demo Day.

  • Python, FastAPI, Git/GitHub from day one
  • Daily standups, code reviews, Friday demos
  • Cyber-ethics & defensive security track
  • Remote guest sessions with engineers from Google & beyond
  • Team builds solving real problems in Accra
  • Final Demo Day pitch to investor panel
