Huawei South Africa has opened applications for its 2026 Women in Tech Digital Skills Training Programme, scheduled for 26–28 August in Johannesburg.
Now in its sixth year, the programme is designed to equip women with practical digital skills to compete and lead in an increasingly AI-driven economy. This year’s theme, “HERabytes: Small Business. Big Intelligence,” focuses on helping women-led businesses integrate AI and digital tools into their operations.
The three-day programme will cover 5G-A, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and practical technology tools for small businesses. The final day will focus on leadership, business resilience and strategic adaptability.
The initiative comes as AI adoption among South African SMEs continues to grow, with research cited by Huawei indicating that 73% of local SMEs have invested in AI, while 62% of women-led businesses have adopted the technology.
Participants who complete all three days will receive certificates of attendance.
