Talent is Universal–
Opportunity is not

Groundbreaker Talents aims for a dual impact: providing a sustainable path out of poverty and promoting a more diverse talent pipeline in tech. This way, we rethink impact to benefit every stakeholder.

For our 2024 Year-End Giving campaign, we aim to fund 30 scholarships for our January 2025 intake. You can fund an entire scholarship or contribute an individual amount to the fundraiser.

Our Double Impact

The Groundbreaker Talents initiative in Uganda offers young women from financially constrained communities the opportunity to undergo an intensive one-year training program in Software Engineering. During this period, the participants live on our campus, fully immersing themselves in the training. This residential learning approach equips them rapidly with all the necessary skills to start a career in the IT sector and promotes a sustainable way out of poverty.
