Success Stories
Dedan Okware
Senior Developer.
PLP's Power Hackathon was a standout experience for me since it forced me to develop new skills, which helped me win PLP's first hackathon. PLP became the place where I got discovered as a techpreneur and developer & as a result, got to showcase my startup to organizations such as MasterCard due to the networks and skills gained through the program.

Before PLP, I was just an ordinary student with routine tasks and little pressure. I saw PLP as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I had the chance to intern as a web development co-instructor for the November 2022 Cohort, which I truly enjoyed.
