The Founder is a software engineer by profession, is an active alumni of KCA University and was a finalist (Top 50/5000) at KCB Lions’ Den, a franchise of Shark Tank USA, where he was offered KES 10 Million (USD 100,000) however he could not give up more than 50% control. The offer was made by an investor who heard his pitch once without prior information which is a vote of investor trust. The platform is currently being upgraded for piloting in a small group in order to reproduce results which attract such investors. His career profile is available on LinkedIn.

Our Vision is to create over 1 million jobs globally (including 20,000 jobs locally) directly as a tech-savvy social impact organisation aligned with UN-SDGs 1-4, 8, 9, 16 & 17. We are open to both donors and investors.
