ABOUT US
Hackademia Institute - Nurturing Investment-Worthy Tech Talents and Future Founders.
Our Story
At Hackademia Technology Institute, we believe that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to change that.
Hackademia was born from the personal journey of our founder, Comfort Olatunde, who once stood at the crossroads of ambition and limited opportunity. Supported by education-centered nonprofit programs, she found a path that not only transformed her future but ignited a calling, to create that same bridge for others.
Hackademia Technology Institute was founded to nurture investment-worthy tech talents and future founders, individuals equipped not just with technical skills, but with the mindset to build, lead, and scale impactful businesses.
Through our hands-on training, mentorship, and project-based learning, participants don't just learn technology, they build real products, automate real processes, and unleash their full creative potential.
We focus on skills that matter: Software Engineering, Product Management, Product Marketing, Product Design, and essential business strategies to turn ideas into thriving ventures.
Hi, I'm Comfort Olatunde
Founder & CEO
When we started this journey, the goal wasn't simply to produce skilled individuals, but to empower a generation to think boldly, build confidently, and lead fearlessly. We are nurturing the next wave of founders, engineers, product managers, designers, and problem-solvers who will drive innovation across Africa and beyond.
Hackademia is not just about teaching tech, it's about rewriting the future of Nigeria, one talent at a time.
Our vision is bold
A thriving community of 5,000 homegrown talents who don't just get hired, they hire each other, build scalable ventures, and transform industries from the inside out. We believe that true impact happens when talent meets opportunity, and when learning is deeply practical, community-driven, and purpose-led.
We're creating a space where anyone, regardless of background, can launch a meaningful career in tech and build something greater than themselves.
This is more than a training institute. It's an empowerment centre, or you can call it an incubator for founders and leaders. And we're just getting started.
Meet Some of The People Driving the Mission
"The strength of Hackademia lies in our people, from employees and volunteers to mentors, associates, and interns. We wouldn't be where we are today without the dedication of every single one of them. I'm deeply grateful to everyone, past and present, who has contributed their time, expertise, and belief in our vision." — Comfort Olatunde, Founder, Hackademia Institute

About The Harvesters Scholarship
Powered by Hackademia Institute & Harvesters International Christian Centre, Ajah
The Harvesters International Christian Centre, Ajah Campus x Hackademia Institute Program is a transformative digital skills initiative designed to equip young people within the Harvesters Ajah community with not just career-building tools, but life-changing clarity.
This is more than a training program, it's a deeply intentional opportunity to discover purpose, build confidence, and take meaningful steps into the future God has prepared for them.

The fund will provide partial scholarships to 200 dedicated members of HICC Ajah, fully covering 50% of their tuition and allowing them to participate in the program at a significantly reduced cost.
This initiative is built on the belief that young people in the church deserve the opportunity to grow not only in their faith but also in their careers, with practical skills, access to world-class mentors, and the kind of training that can unlock global possibilities. For some, this program will be the first time they believe a thriving tech or digital career is within reach. For others, it will be the reset, the moment they finally gain clarity and direction.

Over the years, proving that with faith, determination, focus and the right team, anything is possible, what started with just a roomful of people has grown to be the most desirable place of worship. With locations across Nigeria, the United Kingdom and the United States of America, Harvesters attracts over 70,000 worshippers both online and onsite.

Corporate & Team Training
Hackademia partners with companies to upskill engineering and product teams across AI, data, backend, frontend, and product management. Eight weeks. Live instruction. Real outcomes.
The team you have is closer than you think.
Most companies don't have a talent problem. They have a skills gap, specific, identifiable, and fixable. The engineer who keeps missing sprint targets isn't the wrong hire. They're missing one skill that would make them twice as valuable. The PM who struggles to lead AI discussions isn't underperforming. They've never been given the right training. Hiring fills a seat. Training builds a team. We work with companies to identify exactly what's missing and close it in focused, intensive programs.

Why Companies Choose Hackademia
What makes this different from everything else you've tried.
Your team learns on your actual problems
We don't run generic cohorts where everyone builds the same tutorial project. Engineers work on real use cases from your product. By graduation, they've shipped something that matters to your business.
Advanced focused trainings
Every corporate program requires professional experience. Your team won't sit through content they already know. We pick up where their experience ends.
Live mentorship & training, not recorded videos sessions
Every session is run by a practitioner in real time. Your engineers can ask questions, push back, and get feedback on their actual work. There is no substitute for that.
Evening and weekend schedule
Your team doesn't miss a single sprint. Programs run outside working hours, no disruption to delivery, no awkward conversations with project managers.
You see what's being built
Mid-program check-ins with your HR or L&D lead. End-of-program project presentations your leadership can attend. You are never surprised.
Post-training alumni access
Your engineers don't disappear into a certificate and never hear from us again. They join the Hackademia alumni community, access to mentors, events, and a growing network of practitioners.
