Softicu 3MTT Fellows Shine at the 3MTT Hackathon: A Throwback to an Unforgettable December

Softicu 3MTT Fellows Shine at the 3MTT Hackathon: A Throwback to an Unforgettable December

The energy, innovation, and brilliance of our Softicu 3MTT fellows were on full display last December as they dominated the 3MTT Hackathon, a national-level competition that brought together some of the brightest minds in tech. We are incredibly proud to announce that Team Nhealth Hub emerged as the 1st place champions, while Team VERVED secured a commendable 3rd place finish. This achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and cutting-edge training that Softicu provides to aspiring tech professionals.

The Road to Victory: How Softicu Fellows Made Their Mark

The 3MTT Hackathon is an intense competition that challenges participants to solve real-world problems using technology. Our Softicu students went through rigorous brainstorming, coding, testing, and refining their ideas to create solutions that truly stood out.

Team Nhealth Hub - Innovating Healthcare Solutions

Team Nhealth Hub took the grand prize of N500,000, thanks to their groundbreaking health-tech solution. Their project focused on leveraging technology to improve healthcare access and efficiency, ensuring that communities, particularly underserved ones, have better health services.

The team impressed the judges with their deep understanding of healthcare challenges and their innovative use of technology, making them worthy champions of the competition.

Team VERVED - Driving Change Through Technology

Coming in at 3rd place, Team VERVED secured a prize of N100,000 for their remarkable project. Their solution tackled pressing societal issues, proving that technology is a powerful tool for driving positive change.

Their ability to blend user experience, functionality, and real-world application set them apart, further solidifying Softicu's reputation as a leading tech training hub.

Softicu's Role in Nurturing Tech Talent

At Softicu, we believe in empowering young minds with the skills and mentorship they need to succeed in the tech industry. Our partnership with the Federal Ministry of Communications, Innovation & Digital Economy through the 3 Million Technical Talent (3MTT) initiative has provided our students with unparalleled exposure and training.

Why Softicu Stands Out:

• Hands-on Training: We don't just teach theory; we equip students with practical skills that prepare them for real-world tech challenges.

• Expert Mentorship: Our trainers and mentors are industry professionals who guide students through every stage of their learning journey.

• Project-Based Learning: From hackathons to capstone projects, our students constantly work on impactful, problem-solving solutions.

• Networking & Career Growth: We connect our students with top industry leaders, opening doors to job opportunities, funding, and collaborations.

A Legacy of Success and Innovation

Softicu is not new to producing outstanding talents. Over the years, we have trained and mentored thousands of students in Software Development, Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), UI/UX Design, Blockchain, and more. The success of our 3MTT fellows at the hackathon is yet another milestone in our journey toward building Africa's future tech leaders.

What's Next for Our Hackathon Champions?

Winning the 3MTT Hackathon is just the beginning for Team Nhealth Hub and Team VERVED. With Softicu's support, these young innovators will continue refining their solutions, seeking funding opportunities, and scaling their projects to impact even more lives.

We are also gearing up for more hackathons, training programs, and accelerator opportunities to ensure that our students keep excelling.
