On 4th July 2024, @joshbabarinde wrote his name in the history books. The people of Eastbourne elected him, ousting the Tories by the largest margin in a generation. No person of Black heritage had ever been elected to Parliament as a @LibDems MP. Until today.

Opportunity for orgs looking to access tech-enabled talent that can solve problems (fast)⚡️ We're currently working with a handful of orgs to craft problem briefs that we're directly inserting inside our July 1st #100DaysOfNoCode and #100DaysOfAI curriculum(s) with an expected 15k participants. In short, we're doing two things: 1️⃣ Bridging the gap between skill and opportunity for our hungriest, most talented students 2️⃣ Lowering the barrier for any org to find great people to solve tough problems using tech If you would like to insert a tough problem your org is facing inside our curriculum that thousands of our students can move the needle on, please book in a call with the link below. This is me shooting my shot, so for anyone that knows orgs that could be a good fit for this, please tag them below 😊

2015 isn't quite ancient history (yet) but we've packed a lot into the last 9 years of work 💥
