Join us at the Nairobi Securities Exchange for a special hacking station for the Hedera Africa Hackathon 2025. This session will introduce builders, entrepreneurs, and innovators to the hackathon tracks, judging process, and opportunities ahead. Participants will gain insights into how to submit projects, access mentorship, and compete for funding and visibility. With $1M in prizes and $1M in confirmed follow-on investment, this hackathon is a unique gateway for innovators in Kenya and across Africa to bring their solutions to life. This is also a chance to connect directly with mentors, ecosystem leaders, and peers who are shaping the future of Web3 innovation on the continent.
