Our Mission:
To empower and create the next generation of technologists of African descent.
Who We Are:
We are a group of professionals with a deep passion for technology and a commitment to developing our communities through the power of technology.
What we Value:
Challenging the status quo, leveraging technology for social good, and driving impactful change.
Our team consists of volunteers and full-time staff, united by our passion and commitment to nurturing the development of Black Engineers.
Driven by a passion to empower our community after graduating, we founded Sankofatech. Our initial focus tackled technical gaps by building impactful apps and websites.
Addressing a vital need in our community, we developed the Twi Bible and Hymnal App, making it easier than ever for people to access and engage with their faith on their phones. This first-of-its-kind app resonated deeply, reaching over 50K+ users in its initial months.
Due to expanded responsibilities at work, we decided to pause on work on Sankofatech
Driven by a commitment to community empowerment, Sankofatech underwent a strategic pivot. Instead of building software ourselves, we decided to focus on developing the next generation of Black technologists and equipping them with the necessary skills to create solutions for their own communities. This impactful shift resulted in the launch of the Achievers in Technology (AIT) program.
