🥹 FINALLY able to attend this tech conference!
It's going to be So. Much. Fun!
I have an announcement… 🥁 🥁 🥁
For the first time ever, I’m going to RenderATL, y’all! 🤭
RenderATL has become one of the most popular, well-attended Tech Conferences in the United States.
The event blends professional development with cultural experiences, and offers a dynamic platform for professionals across various tech disciplines, including AI and machine learning experts, software developers, UI/UX designers, cybersecurity specialists, and more.
Participants can expect access to all conference sessions, workshops, interactive exhibitions, and social events. RenderATL also offers opportunities for career advancement through its recruitment floor and networking activities.
For me, the main highlight of attending RenderATL will be meeting & spending time with my favorite Tech fam, many of them in-real-life for the first time! 🥰

And of course, the rich offering of technical and career-advancement sessions!
I will take lots of pictures and video, and share those with you in future issues! 📸

ADC Hackathon Round-Up: Celebrating Our Hackathon Builders
We just wrapped up another exciting chapter at Arit Developer Circle — our first hackathon of 2025! This time, we came together to build something real, useful, and deeply relatable: a project called Split-The-Cost.
The goal was to create an app that helps people track and split shared expenses, whether you’re living with roommates, planning a group trip, or managing outings with friends. From day one, it was all about solving everyday problems with tech.
We kicked off with 12 teams, each filled with curious minds and budding builders. By the end, 10 teams made it through to the final submission. From clean user interfaces to smart logic, we saw teams bring creativity, collaboration, and serious commitment.
Special congratulations to our winners:
🏆 Team Grand Prize Winner: Docker Dynamos
🥈 First Runner Up: Tensorflow Titans
🌟 Honorable Mentions to standout individuals and teams who brought great energy and growth: Adeneye Adijat Motunrayo (Outstanding Individual), Emmanuel Fordjour Kumah (Best Team Leader) and Michael Oyedepo
If this hackathon showed us anything, it’s that the ADC community is full of potential. We’re proud, we’re inspired, and we’re just getting started.
Want in on the next one?
Join our community, stay connected, and stay informed. We’ve got so much more to unfold this year.
Thank you for reading! 🫶🏽
This is super awesome. Lets go 🚀
Am so looking forward to the recap 😌.
