In this episode, I sit down with Trisha Govender and Langa Zulu, techpreneurs who run robotics and coding academies for kids and teenagers in Kwa Zulu Natal.

Trisha and Langa share with us their passion for robotics and coding and how it led them to start their academies, separately.

During the interview we discuss the importance of getting our youth involved in robotics and coding and the impact it can have on their future careers.

They also share their business model and how they make money by offering various programmes and classes to students.

Trisha and Langa also share success stories of students who have gone through their programmes and the exciting opportunities they have pursued after graduation.

We also delve into the importance of diversity and inclusion in the field of robotics and how their academy supports it, with equal participation from boys and girls.

Lastly, Trisha and Langa talk about the support they have received and require from the government and the private sector in their initiative to empower the next generation with the skills they need to succeed in a rapidly advancing technological world.
