Introduction
On the 25th of November 2023, Global African Innovation Association (GAIA) will inaugurate the IT event of this year titled “The African Dream through Tech & Innovation” at the esteemed Impact Hub Accra, situated at 1AAP.

This event anticipates the forthcoming launch of IT programming courses slated to commence in 2024. The event offers attendees a comprehensive program featuring diverse presentations and workshops spanning pertinent themes within Information Technology (IT) and cutting-edge technological innovations. Esteemed collaborators representing various specialized fields will deliver insightful sessions tailored to their respective domains.

The primary aim of this pivotal IT event is twofold: firstly, to present collaborative demonstrations in conjunction with our partners, showcasing the advanced IT capabilities developed and offered by GAIA. Secondly, it seeks to furnish aspiring students and emerging professionals with advanced programming and developmental proficiencies, positioning them with excellence on both national and international level.

Secondly, the presentations and dialogues will delve into a profound exploration of the multifaceted concept of the “African dream,” and how technology and innovation can serve as catalysts in shaping this vision for future generations’ prosperity. Acknowledging that the collective narrative of the “African dream” remains largely undefined within the broader African identity, the event aspires to initiate a discourse with the attendees on the day event. Ultimately to elevate the narrative of a unified African dream into a symbol of inventive excellence, leveraging on technology and innovation to redefine development and create lasting impact for the Africans and the diaspora.

Therefore, we extend a cordial invitation to join us on November 25 at Impact Hub / Dawa Dawa to participate and share your vision!

The African Dream through Tech & Innovation is made possible through the valued collaboration of Impact Hub / Dawa Dawa, University of Ghana, Decisio, IOT Network Hub, Design and Technology Institute, and Whitebox Media.
