Glovo, in partnership with She Code Africa, has launched a Women in Tech Bootcamp in Lagos, Nigeria. The initiative aims to provide 100 women with fully funded scholarships to acquire essential digital skills for the tech industry.
This program is part of Glovo's broader strategy to reduce the gender gap in technology and create equal opportunities for women in the sector.
The boot camp fits in with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu's Development Agenda, T.H.E.M.E.S +, in which Lagos State will be made a 21st-century economy. Through the program, we hope to provide networking, mentorship, and industry professional insights to empower women to lead in the tech space and to contribute to Lagos and Nigeria's economic growth.
Speaking on the latest initiative Lamide Akinola, General Manager of Glovo Nigeria said,
“Glovo is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce. By creating opportunities like this boot camp, we aim to unlock untapped talent and drive long-term change in the tech ecosystem.”
This comes after Glovo rolled out similar initiatives in Spain, Ghana, and Morocco, highlighting the firm's enthusiasm for creative activities in multiple economies.
