The government is trying its best to create a conducive environment for tech initiatives. Has the private sector and Cameroon diaspora done their best already to position Cameroon as the giant of CEMAC in terms of digital technology?

It is within this backdrop of critical rhetoric that the Founder of Seven Advanced Academy Estelle Yomba in one of her working visits to Cameroon together with her colleague from Google Dr. Philippe Gervais endorsed the idea of a developer community in Cameroon.

The mission of the dev community is to provide a platform that will inspire and guide young and established developers in Cameroon to build tech solutions of national and international standards and impact their society. 

In simple terms, the Seven Dev Community is here to connect Cameroonian developers to active tech communities around the world for international mentorship and sponsorship as far as digital technology is concerned. 

The dev community is an initiative of the students of Seven Academy in Douala. Yuwen Eric is the student organizer of the community and this is what he has to say :

“We the students of Seven Academy are privileged to learn software development under a world-class structure and leadership, our mindsets have been transformed and we are proud to be getting the best practical technical training in Cameroon. It is with gratitude therefore that we have organized ourselves to form a community of tech volunteers”. 

“One of the problems we face in Buea Silicon mountain apart from funding and government policy is that we lack mentors at the international level with real-time experience ready to volunteer their time and guide us to develop solutions that can breakthrough globally”.

Says George Enow, founder of Enow Technologies Inc and co-founder of Mungenow properties.

“Seven dev community will actually be the first developers community to be backed by a local institution. So I can say it is the first made in Cameroon Dev and if it can fill the gap then we will all be happy.”

He added.
