In continued efforts to inspire and support the future generation of leaders in Kuwait, talabat , the leading on-demand online ordering platform in the MENA region, hosted 30 students currently taking part in Academy X. The headquarters visit comes as part of talabat's social responsibility strategy and its ongoing sponsorship of Academy X, Kuwait's largest women's empowerment initiative in the tech and entrepreneurship industry, led by CODED Academy. It further aligns with the company's proactive role in advancing Kuwait's technology industry and digital economy, empowering women and young girls, and contributing to the goals of New Kuwait Vision 2035.
Designed to complement students' Academy X journey, the talabat HQ visit included a number of dynamic workshops and discussions with employees from various departments, providing students with first-hand insight into the fast-evolving technology sector. The visit concluded with a competition that put the students' newly acquired Academy X skills to test, featuring challenges that incorporated use cases of AI tools and other app and web development solutions.
"We were delighted to host the ambitious Academy X participants at our Kuwait HQ and share our experiences in building a career in technology. This collaboration with CODED Academy stems from our firm belief in the importance of bridging theoretical knowledge and practical experience in a hands-on professional setting, which helps students gain valuable insights that inspire their dreams and guide their decisions."
