Hotels.ng is going to allow individuals or organisations who are holding a training event in either software or digital marketing, use their office premises for free on weekends.
The event needs to fulfill two criteria, it must be highly technical, that is, it is some form of engineering, and must be free to attend. The office has a capacity for 50 people, and Hotels.ng will provide the internet and electricity.
Remember – if you are doing a highly technical event in either software or digital marketing, hotels.ng office can be used free at weekends

Highly technical means that it's some form of engineering. And the event itself must be free. We have space for 50+ people. https://t.co/9mJ1LeS2a4

Calls for contributors to grow the tech ecosystem is common from startup founders, and this is probably Mark Essien’s little way of putting his money where his mouth is.
This news will probably come as a relief to individuals and organisations who want to contribute to the ecosystem by giving free classes, but are bogged down by logistic costs. You now have a venue and free internet and power, what’s your excuse?
