Techies Connect Girls

Because the ecosystem is stronger with more women in it.

— Why it exists

Women are building, leading and innovating in tech across Cameroon. But the path isn't always equal — in access, in visibility, in support. Techies Connect Girls exists to change that. Not by creating a separate ecosystem, but by making sure women have what they need to thrive in the one we're all building together.

— 3 axes

Axe 2 — Support

Mentoring & Empowerment

Extended mentoring over several years, paired with a professional integration programme — including part-time first experience for young women entering tech. Candidature is open; the Techies Connect committee evaluates and assigns a mentor. Private sessions. Variable duration.

Axe 3 — Community

Talks & Community

Sessions dedicated to women in tech — online and in-person. Conversational format — not a conference, an exchange.

Stay tuned — the next Techies Connect Girls session is coming.

What members say

Found a role through Techies Connect
“I came to my first TC Brunch as a quiet observer. Six months later I was offered my current role by someone I met there. Techies Connect didn't sell me anything — it just put me in the right room.”

Launched a project through The Lab
“The Lab gave my project a structure — real critique, real milestones, real community. We shipped in public because the community pushed us to.”
