I'm really excited to showcase a new video on the East African mobile phone tech scene. We're launching the inaugural Pivot 25 startup competition and conference on June 14-15th this year. All proceeds to support the m:lab, an incubation space for mobile startups in the region.
Here's our promo video:
PIVOT25: East Africa's Biggest Mobile Tech Event from Pivot25 Conference on Vimeo.
25 startup companies from Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda will pitch their application or service on the stage to investors, businesses and media. These pitching sessions are broken down into the following 5 categories:
- Applications in Mobile Payments/Commerce
- Applications in Mobile Gaming, Entertainment and Utilities
- Applications in Business and Enterprise
- Applications in Govt. – Agriculture and Education
- Applications in Mobile Health
This is your chance to see "What's Next" in East Africa's mobile space, the region of Africa (and the world) where some of the best innovation in mobiles is coming from.
