Come hang out at OpenAI Build Week Community buildathon in Nairobi on July 17 for an energetic, hands-on session with Felix Jumason, Tabitha Margaret, and other builders exploring what’s possible with OpenAI tools, Codex, and AI-powered workflows. We’ll be building, testing ideas, and sharing what works in real time, all in a lively space made for curiosity and experimentation. Whether you’re a developer, student, founder, or just AI-curious, this is a great chance to jump in, ask questions, work on something exciting, and meet people building with AI in Nairobi. Expect live demos, fresh ideas, practical conversations, and plenty of momentum as we kick off OpenAI Build Week together.
