In this special episode originally recorded for the Faith Driven Entrepreneur Africa Podcast, Dr. Kamau Gachigi shares how he is equipping Kenyan students how to turn their product ideas into a physical reality.
Dr. Gachigi got tired of seeing brilliant Kenyan engineers leave the industry because they lacked resources.
That’s why he created Gearbox, a hardware accelerator and makerspace that trains, resources, and equips innovators in Kenya so they can turn ideas into physical reality.
In this episode, Dr. Kamau gives an overview of the fourth industrial revolution, and explains why the next Mark Zuckerbergs and Elon Musks are going to come from Kenya. Listen in as Dr. Kamau unpacks design thinking, practical strategies for local job creation, and what African innovators can share with the world.
