In this episode of The Student Guide, we sit down with Nkeiru, founder and CEO of Web3sy, a platform making emerging technologies like AI, blockchain, and quantum computing accessible to young people. Alongside running Web3sy, Nkeiru is a full-time software engineer, educator, and passionate advocate for diversity in tech.
We explore her journey into technology, from gaming and coding as a teenager to building an organisation that teaches 8-15 year olds about Web3, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation. Innu shares insights on employability, entrepreneurship, and why introducing young learners to STEM, coding, and blockchain is vital for the future of work.
This conversation also touches on the importance of representation in tech, the challenges of starting a company, and how to create inclusive opportunities for underrepresented communities. If you’re curious about careers in tech, Web3 education, AI tools, or breaking into the creative and digital industries, this episode is packed with advice and inspiration for young professionals, entrepreneurs, and future innovators.
