SUMMARY:MEET…MICROSOFT // NEXT GENERATION OF AWESOME
DESCRIPTION:The African startup ecosystem is on the move. The continent’s entrepreneurship spirit projects an upward growth thanks to several strengths\, including a growing number of engaging international investors\, a huge population with access to technology\, and a growing number of startup support organizations active in the ecosystem. \nDespite all these\, we cannot turn a blind eye to the fact that we still have a long way to go. Startups are still grappling with a myriad of challenges which as a result is still stifling the continent’s population who are hungry for entrepreneurship. \nHowever\, these challenges can be addressed not only by the government\, but big multinationals can have an impact too. These companies can fill in the void not so much from a business perspective\, but as an ecosystem enabler\, helping entrepreneurs to have the tools\, space and connections to transform their ideas into businesses. \nJoin us for our next MEET Session with Microsoft engineers and executives from Microsofts’ HQ in Redmond Seattle at Nairobi Garage // Pinetree plaza for an amazing AMA (Ask Me Anything) session where these team will have an open discussion with business owners and like-minded people. \nIn attendance will be Michael Fortin (Corporate Vice President)\, Henry Sanders (Corporate Vice President for Software Development and Core Operating System) and Dele Akinsade (Cloud Expansion Director at Microsoft )  and many more. \nIf you are a Kenyan techie\, a developer or just a business owner you cannot afford to miss out on this session. We have a feeling this MEET is going to be epic and we certainly hope that you can make it. \nKindly note that this is an invite-only event! RSVP your attendance here! \nThe MEET session will take place on 14th May from 9.00am to 11.30 am. \n  \nWe regularly host thought-provoking and inspiring talks\, skill-focused seminars and unique networking evenings designed to provide opportunities for professional development and creative growth.

SUMMARY:MEET... Bitsoko // The next generation of awesome
DESCRIPTION:We’re kicking off our February theme of Bitcoin & Blockchain on a high note. MEET… Bitsoko\, a merchant services platform that uses blockchain technology to bring online tools that help merchants and consumers bridge the gap by offering new and innovative solutions to the trade industry. \nMEET… Bitsoko\nBitsoko is designed around a money transfer wallet and a PoS service. The lack of affordable and easy to manage POS systems make it difficult for small and medium-sized traders to have accountable and formal records of inventory management. What’s more\, these merchants and their customers pay multiple transaction fees thereby eating into their thin margins. \nBitsoko is spurring the growth of cashless ecosystems by encouraging customers and merchants to adopt and use digital currency through its’ secure blockchain wallet. The platform enables these merchants to carry out their business more formally\, with functions such as stock and delivery management\, customer loyalty integration and feedback collection available. \nThey guarantee benefits such as increased sales\, improved security and eliminates cash handling costs. This benefits all stakeholders – customers and merchants alike. The added bonus? The investment required to deploy the technology is within the reach of this market. \nThe functionality of Bitsoko platform makes it a must-have utility not only for every merchant but also for everyone who spends money at their local store. Bitsoko is using these tools to drive the adoption of digital currencies to the mainstream. \n\nWhat is MEET all about?\n\n\n\nOur MEET event series is the opportunity for business innovation enthusiasts to get acquainted with cutting-edge products and services\, and the entrepreneurs and leaders that make a difference. \nIf you want to keep up with trending businesses and enjoy a laid back networking session\, MEET is the place for you. Hosted once per month in either of our locations\, keep a lookout for MEET. \n\n\n\nThe Meet… Bitsoko networking session will begin at 6:00 pm with some food and drink.
