Green Breakfast Club is a monthly networking event series for resource exchange and storytelling.Our events include a keynote speaker who is a Sustainability Leader, giving a keynote that is half success story half failure story. This is followed by a resource exchange where each attendee presents themselves, their ‘gives’ and their ‘asks’ – which is turned into a Resource Exchange List and shared with attendees. We began in NYC, have featured All-Star speakers, and are now expanding to new cities worldwide.

Green Breakfast Club’s Nairobi chapter will launch on January 4th 2013, hosted at the iHub. Our first event will feature TMS Ruge as keynote speaker.

TMS Ruge is currently serving as the lead social media strategist for the Connect4Climate campaign at the World Bank. In 2007, he cofounded Project Diaspora, an online platform for mobilizing, engaging and motivating members of Africa Diaspora to engage in matters important to the continent’s development. A technology enthusiast, Ruge writes and speaks extensively on Africa’s current renaissance driven by technology, youth and the Diaspora. He is a frequent contributor to several online publications including CNN, PopTech, The Globe and Mail, The Guardian. He blogs at the projectdiaspora.org.
