Karim Adeyemi Foundation (KAF) will continue to invest in the growth of young people through sports technology because it is home to a goldmine of opportunities.
This organization reiterated this commitment during the first edition of Ibadan Tech Expo, the biggest tech event in Ibadan where it was one of the top sponsors, held at the International Conference Centre, University of Ibadan on Saturday, 9th of September, 2023.
Speaking at the event, Jumoke Idowu, KAF’s Programme Manager, explained that the foundation is committed to using technology to create a more equitable and sustainable future.
To achieve this, she highlighted some of their programs like the KAF’s scholarship initiative, which provides financial assistance to students from underserved communities, and its Adeyemi Football Club, which trains and develop young footballers, harnessing the tools technology has provided in Football Development.
“At KAF, we believe that sports technology has the potential to revolutionize the industry and create new opportunities for young people,” Idowu was quoted saying at the event.
