ABOUT B<>RDER/ESS WEB3 TECH CLUBS

The B<>rder/ess Tech Club is a strategy for growing Web3 Dev/Tech communities on Campuses.

The B<>rder/ess Tech Clubs are a decentralized community of University Student developers and web3-skilled or aspiring tech-skilled undergraduates and web3 enthusiasts pioneered by the B<>rder/ess Developers Programme and web3 Events.

Our aim is to raise Student Developers from the campuses who by the time they graduate are able to build solutions and projects.

B<>RDER/ESS TECH CLUB STRATEGY

  1. Partnerships and collaborations.
  2. B<>rder/ess developer program Trainings.
  3. Events, Meet-Ups, Campus Tour and Hackathons.
  4. Physical Hub set-ups

🤝Partnerships and collaborations:

We start by first partnering with various communities and associations in the School;

  • Campus Fellowships
  • Student Tech Clubs
  • Departmental Associations and a lot more.

In a case where there are no tech clubs in a University, we start one right away.

👩‍🏫B<>rder/ess developer program Trainings:

The primary purpose of the partnership is to train any community member interested in becoming a developer or learning a tech skill physically or virtually.

These are a few of the stats from our last Cipher Registrations.

We received applications from over 28 Universities in Nigeria Over 108 Students applied 39 Females and 69 Males
