    Riziki Cinama

    B.Sc. Data Science, Congo - Kinshasa

  • “In my professional life, I am often met with the question: “What’s your background?“ Usually, people are referring to some kind of academic title. My studies and subsequent degree were the most important prerequisites for me to take up this role.”

    Shamila Adegboye

    B.Sc. Business and IT, South Africa
