Innovation and Networking - The @apemshq team and I attended the @lagostechfest today and it was everything that a tech fest should be, innovation and creativity all around. The Panel discussions were quite interesting and insightful. Loved that I was able to connect with tech innovators and expanded my network - had a chat with a Pathfinder. The event was, in idris' words, "Great Stuff".

What an event (Lagos Techfest 2023) put together by Eventhive.ng. The panel sessions were purely flames with the concise and straightforward solutions proferred. My favorite session however was the one that had Ized Uanikhehi with whom I got a selfie with.
It was my first time of meeting one on one as we had become friends from Twitter to WhatsApp. But what a wealth of knowledge she has! I was also able to speak to a couple of friends from DPO Group, Qwid.app among many others about what we are building at Periculum.
Great event! Was also great to connect with great minds!
