NAHIMS AI & Web3 Launchpad Virtual Tech Event

13 September 2026
NAHIMS SW Media Team

<p>In a bold demonstration of commitment to technological advancement and student empowerment, <strong>Comrade Abdulfatah Abdullahi</strong>, the General Secretary of the National Association of Health Information Management Students, Southwest Zone (NAHIMS SW), has pledged a <strong>₦100,000</strong> personal sponsorship for the upcoming <strong>AI &amp; Web3 Launchpad</strong> — a historic virtual tech event set to make its debut under the current New Dawn administration.</p>

<p>The event is a joint initiative between <strong>NAHIMS Techub</strong> and <strong>NAHIMS SW Tech Hub</strong>, two vibrant technology platforms within the NAHIMS ecosystem, united by a shared mission to prepare the next generation of health information professionals for a digitally driven world.</p>

<h3>A First in the Administration</h3>

<p>The <strong>AI &amp; Web3 Launchpad</strong> holds the distinction of being the <strong>first-ever virtual tech event</strong> organised under the current NAHIMS SW administration — a milestone that underscores the New Dawn team's dedication to innovation, inclusivity, and academic excellence.</p>

<h3>Meet the Hosts</h3>

<p>The event is being co-hosted by three distinguished student leaders who bring both technical expertise and institutional authority to the programme:</p>

<ul>

<li><strong>Comrade Adedayo Mayowa</strong> — General Secretary, NAHIMS</li>

<li><strong>Comrade Abdulfatah Abdullahi</strong> — General Secretary, NAHIMS Southwest Zone</li>

<li><strong>Comrade Kolawole Abdullahi Adeshina</strong> — Director of Technology, NAHIMS SW</li>

</ul>

<h3>The N100,000 Pledge</h3>

<p>Speaking on his personal ₦100,000 sponsorship, Comrade Abdulfatah expressed that the investment is driven by a genuine desire to lower the barriers to student participation in the digital economy and foster meaningful cross-chapter collaboration across the zone.</p>

<blockquote>

<p>"This is more than an event — it is a movement. We want our students to not just consume technology but to build with it. AI and Web3 are reshaping every industry, including health information management, and we cannot afford to be left behind."</p>

</blockquote>

<p>The funds are intended to cover participation incentives, prizes, and resources that make the experience rewarding and accessible for students from all chapters within the Southwest Zone.</p>

<h3>About the Theme: AI &amp; Web3 Launchpad</h3>

<p>The theme reflects a carefully chosen focus on two of the most transformative technology paradigms of our time. Artificial Intelligence is already being used to streamline medical records, predict patient outcomes, and automate administrative processes — all core concerns for health information management professionals. Web3, meanwhile, introduces decentralised models of data ownership and transparency that are beginning to influence how health data is stored and shared.</p>

<p>By bringing these conversations to NAHIMS students through a virtual platform, the organisers aim to spark curiosity, build competency, and inspire the next wave of tech-forward health informatics leaders from within the association.</p>

<h3>Stay Connected</h3>

<p>Registration details, speaker announcements, and the confirmed event date will be shared across all official NAHIMS SW channels. Students are encouraged to follow NAHIMS SW on all social media platforms and join the official WhatsApp community to stay updated.</p>

<p><em>This is NAHIMS SW — building leaders, bridging futures.</em></p>
