Huge thanks to the EAGxNigeria team! This retrospective captures the event perfectly. Attending and volunteering as a speaker liaison was fantastic. Yes, there's always room to grow, but the organizers did an amazing job bringing together so many passionate, impact-driven people. The energy was incredible, from the talks and 1-1s right down to the chats over meals.
I definitely left buzzing with ideas. As an organiser for the EA Ahmadu Bello University Group, the 1-1s with other experienced organisers gave me practical tips for my group. And personally? Those conversations really pushed me. I've decided to dive into learning technical AI, aiming to work on AI Safety more effectively.
Since collaboration was such a big theme, I'm putting this out there: I'm looking for connections, advice, or info on opportunities (like grants or sponsorships) to help with this AI Safety journey. If you have any leads or want to chat about it, please reach out! You can email me at [email protected] or connect on LinkedIn.
So glad I came, and really looking forward to more events from EA Nigeria and the wider EA community. Thanks again!
Helping more people is best achieved when you are not trying to defend your ideas, but by working with others and understanding the world better while doing that.
