The Growth Blueprint
The Growth Blueprint Ticket to Educational Grants, Hackathons, and Scholarships
This session is for engineering and tech students who've watched peers land grants, win hackathons, and secure scholarships and wondered how they did it. The answer is usually simpler than it looks, the right information at the right time.
Five speakers, including student branch chairs and community founders, will share what's actually worked for them: where the opportunities are, how to apply, and how to put yourself in a position to win.
What you'll take away:
How to find and apply for educational grants as a Nigerian student
What separates winning hackathon teams from the ones that don't place
Scholarship strategies that work, and the common mistakes to avoid
Building a profile that makes selectors notice you
