<br>
There is a meeting at <b>The Jacaranda Hotel on Saturday, Nov 7, 2009 @
10am-1pm. </b><br>
<br>
<b>Attendance: Free!</b><br>
<br>
PS Ndemo will be represented by the Head of IT at the Ministry of Information
and Communications. We also expect a notable academic or two to add value to
the discussions / debates.<br>
<br>
We welcome other E-Gov Practitioners / Executives to come and participate in a
discussion to educate us on how we get involved in helping Government build
Information and Transactional systems to benefit all Kenyans.<br>
<br>
We will hear from a Kenyan who is part of a Private Company LOCALLY building a
Web System (Service) that various (not just government) organizations subscribe
to in some part(s) of the EU. He will be interviewed by another Kenyan guru
helping build some HR (System.Web) at the UN in Nairobi. Floor will be open to
any queries about how they and their teams go about building these kinds of web
systems and services.<br>
<br>
Conrad Akunga, our own Kenyan Microsoft C# (an OPEN Programming Technology)
Most Valuable Professional - Awarded to him by a World Wide and World Class
Community of Software Developers, Will Facilitate the E-Gov Q & A Session! <br>
<br>
Some of our more reliable Software (Web) Developers get to find out what our government
needs from them and Government gets to find out our software (web) developers
need to deliver working Information and Transactional systems for Kenyans.<br>
<br>
Spread the word to anyone you think may be interested. There will be
refreshments sometime between 10am and 1pm. KARIBUNI!<br>
