Participants will earn certifications and digital learning badges, enhancing their employability and supporting their transition into the workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This partnership reflects a broader ambition: to drive tangible, scalable impact. Alongside leadership enablement and secure technology deployment, TeKnowledge aims to support Rwanda in accelerating job creation, advancing&nbsp; digital capabilities, and positioning itself as a global hub for next-generation services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking at the event, TeKnowledge President and CEO, Aileen Allkins, said: \u201cRwanda has already shown what is possible when leadership aligns around a clear vision. The next phase will be defined by execution\u2014building capability at pace in the areas where demand is evolving fastest. AI is already reshaping how decisions are made and how value is created. The opportunity now is not whether to adopt it, but how to lead, govern, and scale it responsibly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Equally important is ensuring that this transformation translates into real opportunity. Through our partnership with Harambee, we are equipping young people with practical AI skills and recognized certifications that strengthen their path into employment.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through leadership enablement, workforce development, and cybersecurity resilience, TeKnowledge aims to help accelerate Rwanda&#8217;s transition to a knowledge-based economy while creating new pathways for talent, innovation, and inclusive economic growth<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About TeKnowledge<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">TeKnowledge is a trusted expert technology services company that partners with companies and countries to navigate the complexities of becoming AI-first, managing the full lifecycle from data to security, adoption, and ongoing support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Operating across 10+ global hubs, TeKnowledge delivers 24\/7 operations through more than 4,000 experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in 2010, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teknowledge.com\/\">TeKnowledge<\/a> is part of the YNV Group, a privately held global holding company operating across three sectors: Technology, Real Estate, and Financial Services, including an EU-licensed financial institution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116290\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/CEO-President-of-Teknowledge.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116290\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">TeKnowledge President and CEO Aileen Allkins has emphasized the importance of turning ambition into execution as organizations and countries navigate the opportunities created by artificial intelligence.<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116291\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/Hon.-Paula-Ingabire-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116291\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Paula Ingabire, Minister of ICT &amp; Innovation also graced the event.  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116289\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/8-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116289\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116287\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/5-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116287\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116286\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/4-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116286\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A key highlight of the Kigali event was the strengthening of TeKnowledge\u2019s ongoing partnership with Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"2000116285\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.igihe.com\/en\/2026\/06\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2000116285\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TeKnowledge announced the launch of its services in Rwanda during a private event held in Kigali, introducing new initiatives focused on AI leadership, digital skilling, and cybersecurity resilience.
