where is the love? ❤️🔥 a galentine’s hackathon
roberta flack and donny hathaway once asked, “where is the love?” 🎙️ this valentine’s season, we have the answer: love is the solution.
for us, love looks like empowering black women to own the future of GenAI. right now, black women represent only 3% of tech & engineering roles, and women receive less than 3% of VC funding. 3percentclub is here to flip the script, and our galentine’s day GenAi hackathon is the first step. 🎀
join us for a cozy, high-impact day of building and dreaming on NVIDIA technologies. we’re taking the foundations laid by black pioneers to maximize our GenAI output and script a future that actually serves us—no bias, just brilliance. whether you’re new to AI or a seasoned tech expert, come use next-level tools guided by the expertise of NVIDIA engineers to impact the future. ☁️✨
