7years ago, I made the tweet that birth Web3bridge.
Since that tweet, we have consciously train and supprted the ecosystem with top and competent developers.
Grateful to see the impact and growth that have happened as a result of that tweet. Much more excited about the quality of support Web3bridge has received from the ecosystem, protocols, friends and partners in those years.
This years anniversary came with mixed emotion, especially as we are at a critical part of growth. We have asked the question, should we close up and do something else? Possibly, just turn the rooms to apartments, while I possible get a nice job as I'm not near retirement.
This week, I concluded that the reason why we are under so much pressure now is cos we believe we have something to loose, but we been under no pressure before now cos as I tell them team "we will just go home, if it doesn't work out".
Good news is, we aren't going back home cos our friends and partners already told us they got us and will hold our hands, walk/work with us as we manage the transition into supporting founders.
Grateful much to everyone who have been a part of the journey so far! My wish was to be able to send everyone who have supported us a thank you gift, card, note but it's ok, we will still do it.
We won't have gone this far without the amazing team at Web3bridge! Everyone who has been a part of our journey as a team member, you deserve the kudos and I will someday say thank you in a great way.
For those asking, Peace is not getting sacked either 🌚
Love you all!

@Web3Bridge Moves From Training Talent to Building Startups
Web3Bridge is entering a new phase, expanding beyond developer training to focus on building, incubating, and launching Web3 startups across Africa.
For years, Web3Bridge has played an important role in developing African blockchain talent, equipping thousands of developers with engineering skills, smart contract expertise, and Web3 fundamentals.
Now, the organization is taking that experience a step further by helping transform technical talent and promising ideas into market-ready Web3 ventures.
Why This Shift Matters
From Talent to Products: Web3Bridge is helping developers move beyond learning and turn ideas, projects, and hackathon concepts into scalable products.
Building a Stronger Web3 Ecosystem: Direct startup incubation can help address some of the gaps African founders face in mentorship, funding, product development, and go-to-market execution.
African Innovation With Global Potential: African builders have the opportunity to create solutions in areas such as financial inclusion, identity, governance, and digital infrastructure for both African and global markets.
Africa is no longer just preparing for the future of the internet. African builders are actively creating it.

-@Web3Bridge isn't dead. Founder Ayodeji Awosika (@Ebunayo08) says it’s pivoting.
After 7 years of training developers, the organisation is moving into an 8–12-week Founder Residency for early-stage African startups across Web3, AI, fintech and more.
The first cohort will be capped at 50 teams.

@Web3Bridge is not shutting down, @Ebunayo08 told me in an exclusive chat for @technextdotng that the platform is pivoting from only training tech talents into an African Startup Founders Residence. It's set to open call for its first cohort by end of October 2026.

Very proud of the work my leader @Ebunayo08 is doing!
You’ve made real impact in people’s lives and the scale of what you’re doing is incredible.
Web3Bridge Founder Residency is also coming at a perfect time when we need more founders to have a place and that enabling environment where they can lock in, build and focus on turning their ideas into real products.
I can’t wait to see the companies that will come out of this.
Well done, my leader! 👏👏👏
Now that we’ve closed shop.
Here’s everything you need to know.👇

The first company to give me an actual shot. I came in with zero social media knowledge or skills, worse? I had zero idea about web3…..but you accepted me regardless.
Thank you for everything @Web3Bridge
Family forever ❤️
We are sad to announce that Web3Bridge has closed up shop.
For the past seven years, Web3Bridge has dedicated itself to training developers from different parts of Africa. It has been an incredible journey for all of us. We have watched people walk through our doors with little more than curiosity and leave as developers, builders, founders and contributors to an ecosystem that was still finding its feet.
But over the years, we have also seen something else.
We have seen the ecosystem change. We have seen the needs of our community change. And we have had to ask ourselves a very important question:
Is training developers enough anymore?
So, as we cross into our seventh year, we have decided to….. stay tuned.

Onwards!
A job well done @Ebunayo08 and team, the Web3Bridge #500NigeriaDevs4Eth program was a key part of my entry into Smart contracts and EVM. I appreciate the opportunity and work over the years, and wish you and the team @Web3Bridge the very best 💪

A beautiful day to say thank you to everyone who was part of @Web3LagosCon; sponsors, speakers, attendees, vendors, friends and well wishers.
5th year is done and all lessons taken, and we will be back to drawing board to do more!
If you found Web3Lagos newly after conversations we have had on here, let me do an introduction.
@Web3bridge is the team behind the conference and over almost 7years ago, Web3bridge has devoted time, energy, resources to grow the web3 developer pipeline in Africa. Our work at Web3bridge has created easy path into Web3 development training and ease of access directly and indirectly to hiring top web3 talent in the continent.
I won't be wrong to say, every Web3 protocol that has come into the continent especially Nigeria has benefited directly and indirectly from the job we have done over the last years.
Our program has birthed many program, birthed/motivated many conferences, paved way for many to become financially settled (we have seen over $4m flow to our alumni in salary, grants, retrodrops and others), helped/supported many to travel out of the shores of the country.
Supported so many hackathons, hubs (we currently house the Ethereum hub in Web3bridge) and our devs are contributing to companies in web3 and traditional finance.
We started off as a remote only program and today we can proudly sleep 200 devs/builders, have facility to host 4 learning sessions concurrently in our classrooms, will be working a 1000 capacity hall soon too.
Our grassroot effort is being studied by many protocols in and out of Africa when building developer programs and we are happy to keep supporting the ecosystem, as we will soon announce our founders/builders pipeline.
Happy to chat about how we can work together. DM is open and you can reach out on Telegram Ebunayo08

This one means a lot. From attending #W3LC as a Web3Bridge student in 2022 to coming back as a sponsor in 2026.
A full-circle moment! We love to see it!
Thank you for coming back and supporting the community!
Keep building. There’s no telling where the journey takes you. 🚀💙
