Mastery 2026

TBA

The Social House, Nairobi

Cloud Mastery is Pawa IT's signature hands-on training event for tech professionals who want to lead. This year, we're bridging the gap between standard cloud infrastructure and the new world of Generative AI and Predictive Analytics.

Under the theme “Pawa-ring AI-Powered Apps,” the curriculum is directly aligned with our goal of building smarter, more scalable, and data-driven solutions. We'll be diving deep into serverless deployment—deploying modern e-commerce applications to Cloud Run; Predictive analytics—using BigQuery ML to segment customers without writing complex code; and generative AI—building data-aware agents that can intelligently interact with your database.

Whether you are a Lead Engineer, a Data Pro, or an IT Decision-maker, this is your chance to move from "AI-curious" to "AI-capable.
