Enough from us. Let's hear from the real MVPs. ๐
The innovators and mentors who spent 24 hours turning ideas into solutions are taking over the mic.

Here's what went down๐ค
Algoatwork Robotics Academy
A leading Technology institution specializing in robotics and artificial-intelligence education.
Our youth innovators crossed the finish line with ideas that prove the future is already taking shape in Gauteng.
Closing out the event, the ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ฒ๐ณ ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ for Gauteng e-Gov, ๐๐๐ก๐๐ฃ๐๐ก๐ ๐พ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ช๐ก๐ช, reinforced a powerful message: creating opportunities for young people to develop digital skills is key to unlocking their potential and preparing them to compete in a global technology-driven economy.
The mission goes beyond coding. It is about taking digital skills and services directly into townships and informal settlements, ensuring that more communities can access opportunities, information, and government services online.
From developing applications to improving access to e-services, these young innovators are helping build a more connected and inclusive Gauteng.๐ฏ๐ซ

When we launched the Youth Tech Expo G13 Hackathon Series 2026, we knew we were bringing together first-time builders. What we didn't realise was just how much heart and raw talent would flood that room.
From blank screens to working website templates, these young innovators pushed through the midnight slump, wrestled with coding basics, and proved that grit beats experience every single time. ๐ฅ
And now, the road to the finish line gets real. Huge congratulations to our 2 Finalist Teams who have officially booked their spots to compete in the grand finale at the end of this month!๐๐

uPelepele oshisa bhe! S'bo Gyre stepped into studio for Episode 6 of the series, and he's not mincing words. If you don't know how to use AI, you're already falling behind. In music. In life. Full stop.
