Nicole is a highly accomplished Senior Manager and Consultant with over 20 years of expertise in hardware maintenance and development. She has a proven track record of driving innovation, streamlining operations, and producing outstanding outcomes in both large organisations and start-ups.
The Ishango bone dates from over 20,000 years ago. It is a mathematical tool, unearthed in the heart of Africa in the 1950s. Its etchings suggest that it was a tally stick and the basis of a numerical system.
Most importantly, it reminds us that Africa had and continues to have an important role to play in humanity’s global mathematical history.
However, Africa’s significance in the development of mathematical thought and knowledge has long been overlooked. Our mission is to change this and secure Africa’s rightful place in the future. Join us.
