 Hello. Hey, everyone. How's everyone? Feeling good? Make some noise. Okay. I was really scared. Every time you do this kind of stuff, you never know how the audience will react, right? Sometimes you have to just woo yourself. Which is kind of weird. So my name is Elisha. This is what we're going to go through today. Basically, I will talk and then some ladies will talk and then I'll talk more and then all of us talk and we go home. I promise you it's a lot cooler than it sounds. So my name is Elisha. This is the Tech Ladies Graduation Party. So if you're at the wrong place, just pretend you're at the right place and we're fine. We accept everyone here. So first and foremost, thank you to the sponsors, the Artling, who recently raised funds like I think four million or something was awesome. IMDA Labs for sponsoring the space and PayPal for sponsoring space as well. Who? Oh, okay. You're welcome. Okay. So let me quickly bring you through what is Tech Ladies. So we are a community for you to learn, connect and advance as programmers. So what does that mean? I will slowly bring you through that. Before sharing with you what we do, I think it makes sense for us, for me to share about what we believe in. There's three things that we believe in. First and foremost, technology is for good. So whether it's, you know, you learn about, you learn programming, you create something that's useful for yourself or create something that's useful for someone else. And the second thing is that we, I believe that or we believe that technology is for everyone, including women. If you're in this industry, you might not know that in this, in the tech industry, there's really terrible gender diversity ratio. So we're trying to create a platform where women can come and hopefully you can tip the skill a little bit. Having said that, woman focus doesn't mean anti men. We don't hate men. You know, not like those burning feminists because like you spend so much money and then you burn it off. But anyway, so what I believe is that diversity is not a woman's problem. It is the entire industry problem and everyone within that industry should help to solve the problem together. Okay. So we do three things. Mainly we're trying to bring people from completely zero technical background all the way to people who are already existing programmers. So the first thing we provide a community platform and events like this for you to come and meet one another. Yeah, for come and meet one another and learn from one another. So this thing sounds very corporatey. So the next thing I try to go crazy. So we try to educate you in technology skills. Basically that through through giving you platforms and workshop to come and learn programming skills and also to be aware about what's going on in the industry through our Facebook page. Just in case this is too much, I went back to corporatey speak. So the last thing that we want to do is to really give woman an opportunity to excel, to enter and excel this industry. So we have the tech ladies bootcamp. That is the distraction. Tech ladies bootcamp, which you are here from the participants on what they have built and their personal story. And we also eventually we want to highlight more women who are already in the industry. We want to highlight their contribution more. That means pushing people to speak at conferences and also tech meetups. So we do three things. If you don't remember, just remember CEO. And if you don't remember since we're in Facebook, here's another way for you to remember it. If you know about this. Does anyone know about this? Yeah. So the backstory is that Mark Zuckerberg was 22 years old and he really idolizes Steve Jobs aggressive style in meeting. So he muttered, I'm CEO bitch. And someone, his designer just put it into a name card. It's kind of weird. Anyway, so you are here for the tech ladies bootcamp graduation party. So let me quickly bring you through what, by the way, am I speaking too fast? Okay, because I'm kind of halfway there. So nobody got anything or maybe we can do it again. Good that I don't have to do it again. So this is a hand week part time program where a woman learned how to code by creating products for nonprofits under the guidance of industry experts. So we want to help a woman with near zero background to enter the industry. And we take people from all nationalities. So in this program, participants work in groups of three in the team. So you are here, the team presentation later on. For this specific boot camp, we have five coaches and we're helping five different NGOs. So one thing that's interesting in this, the second boot camp is that this time round, we let the applicants, we actually ask the applicants to create an app before they can enter boot camp to learn how to code and add. Don't question the logic too much. It kind of worked. So we are looking for people who are committed and motivated. So there's a lot of online resources already. It's not difficult for you to put up a simple app, which is why we ask for the boot camp applicants to create a simple app first as part of their submission material to enter this boot camp. So 15 of participants were selected out of 48 applications of which eight of them were disqualified because they didn't have an app or they were late. So we're still looking at about 38% acceptance rate for our this boot camp. So one participant unfortunately dropped out halfway through the boot camp. So only 14 ladies graduated, which I think is still amazing. So let's give them a round of applause. Awesome. So we have five amazing coaches who will help these participants build these all the apps that you are going to see. So also give them a round of applause. Thank you, coaches. So just in case you are noticing a trend, you don't need to be a bald white guy to teach at a boot camp. Let's move on to what you're here for. So for this boot camp, we helped five NGOs. So what you're going to... So these are the NGOs. Each of the team will talk to you more about what this NGO does and what they did for this NGO so you hear them in more detail. So we're going to stop talking now so that someone else can talk. So let's put our hands together and welcome High Points team to talk us through what they have done.
