Connecting Communities with Tech & Skills

A non-profit youth development community from Cumilla, Bangladesh. We connect young people with technology, skills and each other through big-stage events, hands-on training and community projects.

[01] Who we are > node: cumilla

We believe young people build the future faster when they’re plugged in: to tech, to skills, and to each other.

TECHious is a non-profit organisation dedicated to connecting underprivileged communities with technology and skills development. Our mission is to empower people and communities through education, mentorship and access to technology resources.

Based in Cumilla, we run youth development programmes built to national and international standards. In our own words, we “invent the youth”: we give students a stage, a skill set and a team to grow with.
