Highlights
Co-founder Dr. Fortune Onwuzuruike recently led a program with The Emerging 100 of Atlanta and Microsoft. This was to educate the youth on the different avenues within the technology space.
The day consisted of technical workshops, a tour of the Microsoft Atlanta campus, an internal Microsoft panel, and much more! Most notably, Microsoft was able to donate $10k towards scholarship funds, which will go to a high school student from the Atlanta Public School of The B.E.S.T Academy.
