“My participation in specific sessions at the conference also played a pivotal role in building connections,” Inegbedion said. “For example, the session on ‘Creating a Roadmap for Your Product Management Career’ with Asia Mariah Stewart and the session on ‘Investments In Africa’ with Chidinma Iwueke, Chika Uwazie, and Ngozi Dozie provided unique platforms for networking and knowledge sharing.”
He added, “Post-conference, I continued to nurture these connections through follow-up emails and LinkedIn messages. This ongoing engagement helped keep me on the radar of potential employers and provided a platform to discuss potential opportunities. My connections and networks, both established prior to and developed during the AfroTech Conference, played a vital role in my interview process.”
