Free State Software Engineer, Phemelo Pula from Thaba Nchu, is making waves in one of Sub-Saharan Africa’s most prestigious technology competitions. Alongside Team FTCK, Pula is seeking public support to clinch the People’s Choice Award for their innovative solution to a national crisis.
The developers behind Health Hive have secured a place in the Top 20 of the Huawei Cloud Code4Mzansi competition, a continent-wide challenge that attracted hundreds of technical teams from across Sub-Saharan Africa.
The Huawei Cloud Code4Mzansi competition represents a significant benchmark for technological innovation in Africa. Making the Top 20 is a major technical achievement, signifying that Health Hive is a credible and innovative application of cloud resources.
As part of the final judging, a public vote has been opened to decide the People’s Choice Award. Team FTCK has maintained a consistent lead despite competing against larger teams with significantly more resources—a testament to the project’s mission and the strength of the engineering behind it.
