As part of this joint initiative, TransferGo will sponsor African youths seeking to acquire tech skills through a 10-week tech bootcamp. High Impact Careers, with its experienced faculty and dedicated mentors, will facilitate the program, equipping the youths with valuable expertise in web development, project management, data analysis, cybersecurity, and essential soft skills required to excel in the tech industry.
This partnership underscores TransferGo's commitment to helping hardworking migrants succeed by offering them not only financial services but also knowledge and opportunities. The company firmly believes in the significant contributions migrants make to economies at both ends of their journey, filling crucial roles and redistributing wealth globally to areas that need it the most.
"We are excited to play a vital role in transforming the lives of young Africans in Europe. Upskilling is a life-changing factor, and we are delighted to collaborate with High Impact Careers to create opportunities for learners in the tech world," said Marius Nedelcu, Chief Marketing Officer at TransferGo.
Since expanding its money transfer services to Africa, TransferGo now facilitates transfers to 35 African countries, including Nigeria, Ghana, and Morocco. The first quarter of 2023 witnessed an impressive 56% increase in money flow compared to the previous quarter, surpassing revenue targets and achieving a remarkable 94% growth in revenue from African markets.
In light of this new partnership, Seun Adedeji, COO of High Impact Careers, expressed, "Our mission is to develop a pipeline of tech and non-tech talents, empowering individuals with tech skills to not only benefit themselves but also disrupt the tech space. Our collaboration with TransferGo has enabled us to reach more individuals, and the ripple effect of this impact is as infinite as time itself."
