Meet Stephen Yamina, one of the mentors guiding young Kenyan creatives through the Technopolis Development Authority Logo Competition. With over 15 years of experience in advertising, marketing, and communications, Stephen brings deep expertise in brand strategy, creativity, digital transformation, and integrated communications. As Managing Director and Lead Strategist at The Digital Monkeys, his career has seen him develop and lead campaigns for brands and organisations across multiple sectors. Through the mentorship journey, Stephen will help participants think beyond the visual, challenging them to consider the strategy, meaning, and story behind a strong brand identity, and how creativity can translate into real-world impact. And when he’s not thinking about brands and big ideas? He’s fascinated by space and the possibility of a multiplanetary future. To our participating creatives: stay curious, sharpen your thinking, and make every creative decision count. Your mark could become part of TDA’s next chapter. #CraftingKenyasFuture #Jitume #SiliconSavannah #TechnopolisDevelopmentAuthority

The Konza Technopolis Advantage: Smart Infrastructure Built Into the City Imagine a city where street infrastructure does more than illuminate the road. It connects people, enhances security, provides real-time information, and helps the city respond intelligently to its environment. At Konza Technopolis, smart infrastructure is embedded into the city’s design. Konza ’s multifunctional smart poles bring several capabilities together within a connected streetscape, from energy-efficient smart lighting and public Wi-Fi to surveillance, environmental monitoring, digital communication and emergency support. For residents, businesses and investors, this means a city designed from the ground up for connectivity, safety, efficiency and smarter service delivery. It is part of what makes Konza Technopolis different: investors are not simply accessing space to build; they are joining a technology-enabled ecosystem where the infrastructure needed for the cities and businesses of tomorrow is already being developed. The infrastructure is here. The ecosystem is growing. The opportunities are open. Contact us: Email: konza@konza.go.ke Call: 020 4343013 #KonzaAdvantage #InvestInKonza #SiliconSavannah

The Kenya–Namibia Trade Mission brought together Kenyan and Namibian public and private sector stakeholders to explore opportunities for deeper collaboration, investment and knowledge exchange. The Kenyan delegation, led by the Ministry of Information, Communications and the Digital Economy, participated in engagements at the Office of the Prime Minister of Namibia, Rt. Hon. Dr. Tjitunga Elijah Ngurare, providing a platform to identify areas of mutual interest and strengthen bilateral cooperation. For the Technopolis Development Authority, the engagement provided an opportunity to strengthen linkages in ICT, Artificial Intelligence, data protection, digital media and content production, research and innovation, among other emerging areas of the digital economy. As Kenya and Namibia deepen bilateral cooperation, Technopolis Development Authority continues to position Konza Technopolis as a platform for partnerships that connect technology, innovation, enterprise and investment across Africa. Building connections. Creating partnerships. Unlocking opportunities across borders. #Investment #SiliconSavannah

Meet Joseph Achega, one of the creative minds mentoring the next generation of young Kenyan creative designers in the Technopolis Development Authority Logo Competition. A designer, art director, and creative strategist, Joseph has spent years turning ideas into bold visual stories that people notice, understand, and remember. Now, he is bringing that experience to the competition, helping young creatives sharpen their thinking, strengthen their craft, and look beyond the software to the idea behind the work. His advice is simple: a strong creative voice is built one idea at a time. And yes, when he’s not shaping ideas, he might just be planning that basketball comeback. 🏀😄 To all our participating young Kenyan creatives: learn, experiment, ask better questions, and keep creating. Your idea could help shape the next identity of the Technopolis Development Authority. #CraftingKenyasFuture #Jitume #TechnopolisDevelopmentAuthority #SiliconSavannah

The @MoICTKenya , Technopolis Development Authority and @UNDPKenya, together with key ecosystem partners, have completed the Final Business Assessment Calibration Workshop for the Kenya AI Accelerator. The workshop brought partners together to review some of the most promising innovations across the Public Service Delivery and GreenTech tracks, with a focus on identifying AI solutions with strong potential to deliver meaningful social, economic and environmental impact. Next comes the Technical Assessment phase, where shortlisted solutions will be evaluated on areas including data readiness, security and responsible AI. This process will help identify the innovators who will progress to the next stage of the Kenya AI Accelerator Programme. A huge thank you to ASSEK, iHUB Nairobi, Sote Hub and Kenya National Innovation Agency (KeNIA) for contributing their expertise to the assessment process and helping identify solutions with the potential to move from promising ideas to practical, scalable impact. The goal is clear: to support responsible, locally relevant AI solutions that can strengthen public service delivery, advance Kenya’s green transition and create lasting impact. #KenyaAIAccelerator #ResponsibleAI #GreenTech #SiliconSavannah

New chapter for Kajiado County! Digital opportunities are coming closer to home for the people of Kajiado East. Speaking during the laying of the foundation stone for the Kajiado Jitume Digital Centre of Excellence in Kitengela, area MP Hon. Hamisi Kakuta Maimai welcomed the project as an important step towards expanding access to digital skills and opportunities for young people. “For a long time, our residents have had to travel to neighbouring counties to access these opportunities. In just a few months, our young people will be able to access digital skills, technology and opportunities right here in their own community,” he said. Through the Jitume Digital Enablement Programme, in collaboration with @CA_Kenya, @ICTAuthorityKE, @NGCDF_Kenya, the Centre will help create pathways for young people to develop relevant digital skills, access online work and entrepreneurship opportunities, and participate in Kenya’s growing digital economy. #JitumeKajiado #DigitalSkills #SiliconSavannah

A Technopolis is more than buildings, roads and technology. It is an ecosystem where ideas, people, research, innovation and enterprise come together to create opportunity. With the establishment of the Technopolis Development Authority comes an expanded mandate to support the development of technopolises that enable technology-oriented enterprises, research and innovation, strategic partnerships, talent development, entrepreneurship, investment, sustainability and economic growth. But what should the next generation of Kenya’s technopolises look like? That conversation should include you. As we shape a new identity for the Authority, we’re also creating an opportunity, in partnership with the Jitume Digital Media Factory, for Kenyans to better understand the mandate behind it and contribute their ideas and creativity to how that story is represented. Now imagine its identity. What does a Kenyan Technopolis mean to you? #CraftingKenyansFutute #TechnopolisDevelopmentAuthority #Jitume #SiliconSavannah
