In 2010, I had an opportunity to do a Networked Nonprofit workshop in Kenya. Zawadi shared her most recent crowdfunding campaign, probably one of the most successful in Kenya, raising over $71,000 in a couple of days, to help a 24 year old brain cancer patient Emmanuel Otieno (pictured above and known as Jadudi) to get surgery in India.

In the future, AR could expand to holograms of ourselves doing everything from going on safari in Kenya to attending a conference.

we get to hear the story of a cell phone banking service that gives the poor effective banking services in Kenya when the country's banks have declined to serve them.

A Silicon Valley entrepreneur (or VC) can't afford to look at a $5 million revenue opportunity, but that is probably much more attractive to a Kenya entrepreneur.
