Transcript

Some exciting news for anyone who's in the graphics and design space. So Canva is having their first hackathon, of which they are calling, uh, Kencavathon. I like the wordplay. Where you will be trained for three days on how to design and to use Canva, you'll be building websites, flyers, you name it. These are beneficial skills for anyone who's in the space, or even someone who's a business owner would like to develop these skills. Thereafter, in October, you'll have the opportunity to put together your own team so that you can compete for some money. And these will be happening across the whole of Africa. And in South Africa, it's going to be in Johannesburg. So don't miss out on the opportunity. It's absolutely free. But of course, there's a prize at the end.
