[kictanet] Tandaa Tech Funding Challenge Live stream

Hi,

This is a major leap forward, the sound might be off, even though the Wright 
Brothers only stayed in the air for 12 seconds it still qualified as the first 
ever powered flight.

Lets hope for more of this, we also look forward to a local streaming server so 
as to reduce the latency being caused by having to send the footage to the US 
and then back again.

I one point for local content.

Dear Listers,
Please follow the event above on Ustream live on the link below
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/tandaa-tech-ideas-funding-challenge

About the event:
 
The Kenyan technology and new media sector is buzzing. In Kenya, over 80% of 
citizens have access to a mobile phone and internet connectivity is expanding 
across the country. Solutions like mPesa have revolutionized the day-to-day life 
of Kenyans bringing financial services to anyone with a mobile phone. With the 
increasing use of technology for business and lifestyle comes the opportunity to 
build vibrant businesses to deliver technology solutions that will capitalize on 
the expanding demand for mobile and internet services.

Technology entrepreneurs are seizing the opportunity and are ready to develop 
their ideas and launch their products in the Kenyan and global market. But for 
many 'techpreneurs', finding the funding to grow sometimes risky and complicated 
technology-based companies has been a difficult--until now.

On October 18, six companies will pitch their ideas to a panel of Venture 
Capitalists. In front of a live audience, each company will have 20 minutes to 
pursued the VC panel that their company is worth investing in.
