Subsequent to his success tour of
Nigeria’s tech ecosystem, Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg is in Nairobi to learn
about mobile money and how it has impacted lives.
Zuckerberg posted on his
profile, “Just landed in Nairobi! I’m here to meet with entrepreneurs and
developers, and to learn about mobile money — where Kenya is the world leader.
I’m starting at a place called iHub, where entrepreneurs can build and
prototype their ideas. It’s inspiring to see how engineers here are using
mobile money to build businesses and help their community.”
His surprise visit to Kenya
is seen as a validation of the growing tech scene and a symbol of more to come.
His visit will fuel and inspire more youth to follow his entrepreneurial
journey as well as encourage the government to work more with local tech entrepreneurs.
Just as his visit to
Nigeria, Kenyan developers and entrepreneurs see this as a significant time for
them as the change agents in their society.
Ajala travel the Africa, lolzzzzzzzzz
