Moniepoint has announced that the second cohort of its flagship DreamDevs Bootcamp will conclude with a Demo Day event scheduled for May 26, 2026, at the company’s Ikeja facility in Lagos.
The Demo Day, themed “Training Done! Demo Up!”, will feature live presentations of capstone projects developed by participants after completing nine weeks of intensive, industry-focused software engineering training. The showcase is expected to highlight practical solutions built to real-world engineering standards.
The DreamDevs Bootcamp is a core part of Moniepoint’s long-term talent development strategy, aimed at identifying and nurturing high-potential software engineers across Africa. Participants undergo a rigorous curriculum covering Java Object-Oriented Programming, Data Structures and Algorithms, Software Testing, MySQL and JDBC, Spring Boot APIs, System Design, Docker, Messaging Queues, Frontend Development, Cloud Infrastructure, and applied software engineering principles. Participants also receive monthly stipends throughout the programme.
Brandspur Banking News Desk reports that the curriculum was designed by Moniepoint’s Engineering Unit and delivered in collaboration with Semicolon, a leading technology training institution. Entry into the programme is highly competitive, with candidates required to pass multiple screening stages, including technical assessments and in-person coding challenges.

Speaking on the impact of the initiative, Felix Ike, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Moniepoint, said the programme was intentionally structured to produce engineers capable of operating at global standards. He noted that graduates from the first cohort are already contributing actively within Moniepoint’s engineering teams, reinforcing the programme’s role as a direct talent pipeline.
The company confirmed that several participants from the inaugural cohort have since been absorbed into its engineering workforce, underscoring the practical value and employment outcomes of the bootcamp.
Beyond the Demo Day, the DreamDevs Bootcamp reflects Moniepoint’s broader mission to strengthen Nigeria’s digital economy by investing in local talent and building engineering capacity that can compete internationally. The company stated that it looks forward to engaging with the second cohort’s innovations and expanding opportunities for emerging software engineers across the continent.
