Applications are now open for the 3MTT Nigeria NextGen Knowledge Showcase. This is your chance to move beyond learning and start building by solving a real-world problem that matters. If you have completed your training, this is the moment to demonstrate your skills and creativity.
Participants are required to choose one of four impact pillars: Financial Inclusion, Education, Environment, or Digital Inclusion. After selecting a pillar, identify a clear challenge within that space and develop a functional solution that showcases your technical ability and problem-solving skills. The goal is to present practical proof of what you have learned through the 3 Million Technical Talent (3MTT) programme, in collaboration with the Airtel Africa Foundation and NITDA.
Submissions must be individual entries only; team submissions will not be accepted. Each entry should include a working MVP, demo link, or mockups, a 2–4 minute demo video, and a clear explanation covering the problem, users, build process, impact, and scalability. Applicants must also disclose any AI tools used, where applicable.
Prizes will be awarded per state: first place receives a laptop, second place a tablet, and third place 20GB of data. The deadline is March 24, 2026. Submit your application through your 3MTT dashboard.
