I had the incredible opportunity to participate in the ayoba Business ChatApp Hackathon held at Innovation City Centre from the 26th to the 28th of July. This event was an intense, inspiring, and transformative experience for everyone involved. Our team, The PowerpuffIT Girls, faced numerous challenges throughout the weekend. Despite the hurdles, we remained committed and dedicated, putting our best foot forward in every task. The hard work paid off, and I am thrilled to share that we made it to the finals, ranking among the top 12 teams! A heartfelt thank you to ayoba, Chenosis and Geekulcha for organizing such an eventful and enriching weekend. Your support and the platform you provided were instrumental in our journey. Looking forward to many more such opportunities and continuing to push the boundaries of innovation and teamwork! 💙🧡 #AyobaHackathon #Innovation #Ayoba #GeelKulcha #PowerpuffITGirls #Tech #Teamwork #Dedication #InnovationCityCentre
