I’m Bernard Sibanda, Founder of WIMS-Cardano Global which is a 200+ member community spanning across more than 5 countries which include : South Africa, Eswating, Zimbabwe, Botswana, DRC, Ghana, Uganda, Nigeria, India, Parkinstan, Cardano, Norway, Australia. This is a big community onboarding over 16 universities globally on to Cardano Intersect Open Source via Coxygen Global IT Consulting company. This is testimony to my dedication to empowering developers in Cardano and Intersect worldwide.
I’ve enjoyed training over 300 developers in Haskell Plutus, Lucid, Helios, Aiken, Mesh and GitHub workflows, built tools like coxylib.js, and championed Cardano at global events. At Intersect, I served as Open Source Developer Advocate (2024–2025), shaping the Contribution Ladder and leading global smart contract training. I attend key Intersect committees and champion developer needs through the Developer Experience WG. I’m running to strengthen open source collaboration, innovation, and recognition across our ecosystem. Let’s make Cardano globally competitive—developer by developer. Let’s build together.
