Outreach Highlights

"At PTGR, we believe that the future of digital economies begins with education and collaboration."

This week, our team had the opportunity to present at our partner universities, ACT American College of Technology and BITS College, introducing students and faculty to Hive888 — PTGR’s new initiative designed to connect education, talent, innovation, and capital within the Web3 ecosystem.

The sessions focused on how blockchain, digital assets, and emerging Web3 technologies are shaping the next generation of financial and digital infrastructure. More importantly, we explored how Ethiopian students and entrepreneurs can participate in this global transformation.

Through HIVE888, PTGR aims to build a platform where learning leads to real opportunities, from developing Web3 skills to launching projects and connecting with international networks.

AASTU Study Sessions

We also visited AASTU, where our team delivered a lecture and introduced HIVE888 to the GDG On Campus AASTU community as part of their "study sessions" mentorship program. The session provided students with insights into Web3 technologies and practical guidance on how to engage with this evolving ecosystem.

Key Topics & Focus Areas

  • Introduction to emerging Web3 technologies and digital assets
  • Blockchain's role in building the next generation of financial and digital infrastructure
  • How Ethiopian students and entrepreneurs can participate in the global Web3 transformation
  • Translating academic learning into real opportunities via Hive888 (skills, projects, capital)
  • Practical guidance on engaging with the evolving Web3 development ecosystem
