ALX, a leading tech career accelerator fostering a vibrant community of young talent across Africa, recently has spotlighted its innovative ALX Pathway Programme.
To bolster awareness for the innovative programme and build trust among key stakeholders, the tech accelerator hosted an insightful and engaging Parents Forum in Lagos.
The initiative, according to the firm, opens opportunities for young Africans to pursue degrees at globally renowned partner institutions, empowering participants with the tools and networks to succeed.
The forum provided an interactive platform to showcase the programme offered, including access to peer communities, professional network events, mentorship, and personalised guidance for applications to partner universities.
The event featured testimonials from current participants and a live session with a representative from the African Leadership University (ALU), one of the programme’s esteemed partners.
Speaking at the event, the Country General Manager for ALX in Nigeria, Ruby Igwe, said: “The ALX Pathway Programme is designed to bridge the gap between young Africans’ aspirations and global opportunities.
By equipping participants with critical resources and networks, we aim to empower the next generation of leaders who will shape Africa’s future on the global stage.
“Through this forum, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to empowering the next generation of global leaders from Africa.”
Highlighting the importance of parental involvement, Country Growth Manager for ALX Nigeria, Seun BabajideDuroshola, added: “Parents are essential partners in their children’s journeys.
This forum allowed us to engage with them directly, address their questions, and showcase how ALX Pathway provides transformative opportunities.
Together, we are building a strong foundation of support for participants as they embark on this life-changing journey.”
