[kictanet] Kenya Internet Governance Forum Discussions Day 2 : Smart Cities What does the Future Hold

[Barrack Otieno]

Listers,

Many thanks to those who have contributed to day 1 discussions, the thread
is still open and you can continue with the discourse. Day two will reflect
on Smart Cities. Kenya has been billed as Africas Silicon Savana, recently
i overheard a conversation that the issue is being overated and that it is
not sustainable in the long run, the bone of contention was the Konza
project:

1. Is there a future for smart cities in Kenya?
2. Can this idea be replicated in the counties and if so to what scale?
3. Do the smart Cities offer a better value proposition than incubators
that are being set up by universities?, are there any overlaps?

The floor is open

Best Regards
