ALX, a leading
tech career accelerator fostering a vibrant community of young talent across
Africa, hosted a Parents Forum in Lagos to spotlight its innovative ALX Pathway
Programme. This unique initiative opens opportunities for young Africans to pursue
degrees at globally renowned partner institutions, empowering participants with
the tools and networks to succeed. To bolster awareness for this new innovative
programme and build trust among key stakeholders, the tech accelerator hosted
an insightful and engaging Parents Forum in Lagos.
The forum provided an interactive platform to
showcase the programme’s offerings, including access to peer communities,
professional network events, mentorship, and personalized guidance for
applications to partner universities. The event featured testimonials from
current participants and a live session with a representative from the African
Leadership University (ALU), one of the programme’s esteemed partners.
Speaking at the event, Ruby Igwe, Country General
Manager for ALX in Nigeria, said, “The ALX Pathway Programme is designed to
bridge the gap between young Africans’ aspirations and global opportunities. By
equipping participants with critical resources and networks, we aim to empower
the next generation of leaders who will shape Africa’s future on the global
stage.” Through this forum, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to empowering
the next generation of global leaders from Africa.”
Highlighting the importance of parental
involvement, Seun Babajide-Duroshola, Country Growth Manager for ALX Nigeria,
added, “Parents are essential partners in their children’s journeys. This forum
allowed us to engage with them directly, address their questions, and showcase
how ALX Pathway provides transformative opportunities. Together, we are
building a strong foundation of support for participants as they embark on this
life-changing journey.”
The forum also included an open Q&A session,
allowing parents and media representatives to gain clarity on the programme’s
application process, engagement structure, and overall impact. This transparent
approach reinforced ALX’s commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for
Africa’s youth while fostering trust among stakeholders.
