Humbled to be associated with the Box.

Let's hope Insha Allah, this will go some ways in diverting our young people towards more constructive endeavors and away from radicalization.

It is going to be interesting to eventually see how the Nairobi and Mombasa Technology Communities can come and work together as a result of this. What would be more interesting would be to see the activities we can bring down to the space and create a more "regional" technology landscape.
