Beyond The Blockades: How a Tech Hub in Gaza is Building The Next Generation of Entrepreneurs

Sara Alafifi, Mentorship & Communications Manager of Gaza Sky Geeks, visited Tokyo all the way from Gaza, a 30-hour journey which was preceded by a 6-month process to obtain a visa.
On November 15th, Social Innovation Japan organized ‘From Gaza to Japan: Building Entrepreneurs for Social Change’ at Code Chrysalis, inviting Sara from Gaza Sky Geeks — the first tech hub in Gaza, and the first combined co-working space, start-up accelerator, and code academy in Palestine.
