This summer, many members of our community have joined some of the world’s leading technology companies in internships.
They wrote code, solved problems and discovered what it felt like to contribute their talents in the actual environments. While returning to school, they carry new skills, fresh confidence and stories that inspire us all.
In this rounding, we shine a spotlight on some internship trips. These experiences represent more than just summer work – they are milestones on the road to building careers, make connections and prove that black technologists everywhere should take place innovation.
