1 Comment

East Africa is increasingly known globally as a breeding ground for mobile innovation. Deliberate efforts are required to sustain the favorable attention and momentum for the region to retain its position as a mobile innovations cradle. Pivot 25 was the inaugural mobile applications and developer competition/conference in East Africa. This competition which culminates in a pitching conference is organized by m:lab EastAfrica and its partners.

In keeping  with  the  African tradition of  consultation  and  communion,we have  organized  a  series  of  discussion  barazas to  disseminate  information on  Pivot East. In  attendance  will be  various  stakeholders in  the  pitching conference  that include sponsors,developers,investors and the  media.

At the Pivot Baraza ,concerns on  various aspects  of  the competition  will  be addressed in  addition to  dissemination on  the  new and  exciting  changes that characterize  Pivot East. Competition rules and structures will be unveiled.

The Baraza will be held at the Ihub on Monday the 6th of February from 2.30pm to 3.30pm.

Invitations are open to the entire innovation community. Potential competition applicants are strongly encouraged to attend. We however regret that we can only accommodate 100 people at the baraza. As such, reservations will be on a first come basis.
