This move marks the culmination of a seven-year journey that began with a mission to empower African talent and has now evolved into a comprehensive platform offering scalable solutions for organizations and individuals alike.
Gebeya’s journey started in 2017 as an EdTech startup, providing training and upskilling opportunities for tech professionals across the continent.
It then transitioned into a multi-sided marketplace, connecting skilled individuals with relevant job openings. Now, with the launch of Gebeya 3.0 and its core component, the Gebeya Talent Cloud (G-TC) platform, the company enters a new era.
Powered by AI, G-TC offers a flexible and scalable approach to talent management.
It caters to diverse organizational needs, encompassing public, private, strategic, and sourcing talent cloud solutions. This allows professionals from various sectors to discover opportunities aligned with their skills and aspirations.
For instance, software developers can leverage Talent Clouds created by partners like Microsoft, gaining access to specialized training, job postings, and networking opportunities within specific ecosystems.
Gebeya aims to leverage its innovative Talent Cloud technology to elevate Africa’s potential and global competitiveness.
Through this, the company hopes to create a future where skilled professionals can thrive and contribute to the continent’s digital transformation journey.
