OpenHub Announces Three Winter Bootcamps
It’s been a long, challenging and quite unique year unlike no other, and for many, one filled with isolation, hopelessness and uncertainty. However, one common thread has surfaced among all those who have successfully navigated the new, world terrain: a willingness to be versatile and open to new opportunities and growth.
Hudson Valley based entrepreneur, Yulia Ovchinnikova, has long been aware of the dire need of acquiring strong skill sets, possessing constant flexibility and having the support of a sense of community as they relate to the job market, specifically the technology field. Even before the Pandemic set in, Ovchinnikova envisioned a thriving technology-driven economy right here in the Hudson Valley. That exciting reality included like-minded individuals, businesses and stakeholders who fused together, promoting, training and guiding one another in mutually benefitting ways, ultimately creating a booming technology “hub.”
