SoLa Technology & Entrepreneurship Center
We are bridging the digital divide in South Los Angeles by creating the community's first state-of-the-art Technology and Entrepreneurship Center. This center will offer high quality educational programming alongside leadership and entrepreneurship development in an exciting and safe environment free of charge to the community.
Our virtual technology classes, SURGE, launched summer 2020, providing over 400 hours of technology education and training to South LA students.
The SoLa 2021 Technology and Entrepreneurship Summer Camp is hosting a five-week experience with each week having a different theme and objective.
Sponsors:
