elev8’s partnership with Microsoft fosters innovation and skills development among Arab youth, positioning the Digital Center of Excellence as the vibrant hub that serves as a beacon that empowers the next generation of digital leaders.
As Qatar continues to fulfill its digital transformation agenda, elev8 Digital Center of Excellence (CoE) has emerged as a pivotal force in shaping the future of the country and the region. This vibrant hub, founded in partnership with the Ministry of Communications and IT, Microsoft, and elev8, serves as a beacon that empowers the next generation of digital leaders, providing cutting-edge skilling programs tailored for students, professionals, women, business leaders, and youth.
In a recent initiative aligned with its mission, elev8, in partnership with Microsoft, hosted a group of 100 Arab students to take part in a tour of the Digital Center of Excellence. This event provided aspiring young professionals with insights into the limitless possibilities that technology holds for their future.
The tour comes as part of their participation in the 1st Arab Youth Anti-Corruption Hackathon, a significant event within the “Coding4Integrity” youth anti-corruption hackathon series organized by the Global Resource for Anti-Corruption Education and Youth Empowerment (GRACE) initiative of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in conjunction with the Administrative Control and Transparency Authority (ACTA).
Maria Balbas, President, elev8 Education and Executive Vice President, YNV Tech Talent, shared, “At elev8, we believe that the youth are the driving force behind Qatar’s digital agenda. Our Digital Center of Excellence is a vibrant ecosystem that connects national and international talents with cutting-edge technologies, providing them with the skills and knowledge needed to lead our collective digital transformation journey. We are committed to mentoring, coaching, and creating collaborative opportunities that will unlock the full potential of our youth.”
