This week, we are hosting 400 Grade 9 girls at a Mathematics camp in collaboration with the Department of Basic Education in #Mpumalanga, as part of the “10000 Girls in Mathematics” initiative. We aim to inspire these girls to pursue pure mathematics in Grade 10 and beyond. At Africa Teen Geeks, we remain committed to empowering the next generation of female #mathematicians. #GirlsinSTEM

Why I Joined the Forward Faster #Accelerator and Why #Women Focused Accelerators Matter Building a #company is often described as a journey of product, capital, and execution. In reality it is also a journey of proximity. Proximity to the right networks, the right conversations, and the right people who understand what it takes to build something meaningful. That is one of the reasons I joined the Forward Faster Accelerator by FFinc. Forward Faster is a six month programme designed to support ambitious female powered businesses in the #UnitedKingdom. It brings together founders, investors, industry experts, and mentors to create an environment where companies can grow with intention and clarity. For founders building in complex sectors such as deep technology, aviation, and autonomous systems, access to experienced operators and investors is invaluable. These are industries where mistakes can be expensive and where the distance between an idea and a real deployment can be long. Accelerators can shorten that distance. At their best they provide more than mentorship. They provide exposure to the difficult questions that sharpen a founder’s thinking. They connect entrepreneurs to people who have already built companies and navigated the same challenges. For women founders the value is often even greater. The reality is that women continue to receive a smaller share of venture capital globally. This is not a reflection of ambition or ability. It reflects structural barriers that still exist in funding networks and decision making circles. Targeted accelerators help address this imbalance by creating pathways to capital, partnerships, and visibility. Programmes like Forward Faster create environments where women founders can focus on building, scaling, and learning without having to constantly justify their presence in the room. I joined this accelerator because I want @SwerfvalkGlobal to grow with discipline and global ambition. I also joined because I believe strongly that women must not only participate in the innovation economy. We must shape it. The future of technology should be built by diverse minds, bold thinkers, and founders who are willing to solve difficult problems. Accelerators like Forward Faster are helping ensure that more women are part of building that future.

Don’t miss my interview! I’ll be talking about my new music that is now officially roaming freely on all streaming platforms. Yes, it has escaped the studio and it’s out in the wild. Please tune in before my songs become more famous than me and start giving their own interviews.

Agentic AI offers immense potential, but its risks cannot be ignored. As AI systems gain more autonomy, adversaries will exploit new vulnerabilities, requiring proactive security strategies. Organizations must integrate strong authentication, anomaly detection, and AI behavior monitoring to mitigate threats. Read more here: shorturl.at/uUYZs #cybersecurity #AI

The U.S. Copyright Office’s report, Copyright and Artificial Intelligence, Part 2: Copyrightability, reinforces that copyright protection requires human authorship. AI can serve as a tool, much like a camera or digital software, but works generated solely by AI without significant human input are not copyrightable. According to the report, human creativity is central to copyright law. If an AI system independently creates content—such as text, music, or artwork—without meaningful human involvement, it does not qualify for protection. However, when a human exercises creative control by selecting inputs, editing outputs, or structuring the final work in a way that reflects personal expression, the work may be eligible for copyright. This has major implications for industries relying on AI in content creation. Fully automated AI-generated content may not be legally protected, affecting ownership and monetization strategies. Businesses and creators must ensure active human involvement in the creative process to maintain intellectual property rights. As AI technology advances, legal scrutiny will continue, raising questions about the threshold for human involvement. For now, creators should strategically integrate AI as an assistive tool while ensuring their human authorship remains central. Read the full report here: shorturl.at/HqciM

The rollback of #DEI in #tech others US echoes South Africa’s “swart gevaar” rhetoric—stoking fear of #Black and marginalized professionals by framing diversity as incompetence. Women (26.7%) & Blacks (4%) remain sidelined as pay gaps persist. Read more: shorturl.at/60vQe
