Zoho Corporation, a global technology company, announced the successful conclusion of an app-building competition held at the Ladies Can Tech event in Nigeria.
Organized by Harvoxx Tech Hub in partnership with Web Work Tools Limited, the competition aimed to encourage women’s participation in the tech industry.
Participants were required to create an app using Zoho Creator, Zoho Flow, and Zoho Analytics.
