Applications for the Google Conference Scholarships for African Students are currently being accepted from interested and eligible individuals to benefit from this wonderful and lucrative opportunity.
The most eligible applicants will get the scholarships after an application evaluation. According to the timelines established for the region, each candidate will be informed of their status.
At Google, we believe a diversity of attributes, experiences, and perspectives are needed to build tools that can change the world. They also believe that everyone deserves an opportunity to pursue connections in the industry, networking with peers, and a career path in technology.
To help break down the barriers that prevent underrepresented groups in technology and business from attending leading conferences, we are excited to offer Google Conference Scholarships for selected conferences in the tech industry and related fields.

To be eligible for Google Conference Scholarships for African Students, applicants are expected to meet the following conditions:
