🎉 Tana Turns 2! 🎉 Two years ago, Tana was just a big idea: to connect Africa’s exceptional tech talent with global opportunities. Fast forward to today, and we couldn’t be prouder of the journey so far! This past weekend, we celebrated with a fun 90s-themed party — the perfect way to reflect on how far we’ve come and to appreciate the amazing people who make it all possible. 🌍 From working with clients across 7 countries to helping companies like Redwood Software scale their teams from 3 to 22 in under a year, the impact we’re creating together with our partners is extraordinary. 🙌 Our Tana Fellows are raising the bar for excellence, with a 95% long-term hire rate and glowing testimonials like: “Everyone we’ve brought on is smart, diligent, and easy to work with. Tana’s hands-on support is exceptional — we’ve found true partners for growth!” 🌟 Most importantly, this work means so much more. With only 1 job available for every 4 people entering the workforce in Africa, we’re unlocking opportunities that transform lives. Faith, a Tana Fellow, put it best: “The job search was so hard, I nearly gave up on myself. To go from that to loving my job and doing work that has a real impact is a dream." Every milestone has been fuelled by the trust, advice, and support from our community. To everyone who’s been part of this journey — thank you! 🙏

Your trust and support drives everything we do. 🙌 Wishing everyone a joyful Jamhuri Day, a wonderful festive season, and an exciting New Year ahead! 🎄✨
