Emerging Leaders - Dylan Zajac

Cumberland Lodge

If you could go back in time and give yourself a piece of advice, what would that be? In this episode of Emerging Leaders, we speak to Dylan Zajac, Founder and Executive Director of Computers For People, a non-profit providing devices and training to low-income individuals on the East Coast of America. The discussion explores the importance of networks and how one chance encounter can have a cascading impact. Dylan founded Computers For People at 15-years-old with an aim to foster digital equality, repurposing disregarded devices into digital tools. Through device donations, digital skills classes, and free hotspot programmes, the organisation has helped more than 3,000 people access digital resources.
