Bernard Chiira is business incubator manager at Strathmore University’s @iBizAfrica in Nairobi Kenya. With extensive experience in managing startups, Bernard holds a Master Degree in Mobile Telecommunication & Innovation and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business and Information Technology from Strathmore University. One of the executives at AfriLabs Foundation, he shares with IT Edge News, his passion and commitment to promoting sustainable startup ecosystem on the continent – these were the thrusts of his presentation at Sahara Sparks 2017 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

What does Afrilab plan to achieve as a body?

Afrilabs aims to create valuable connections between innovation hubs in Africa. We also aim to help our member hubs leverage on opportunities for their hubs and the startups they support at a continental and global level. Through our annual gathering, we also aim to facilitate the meeting and discuss important matters in regards to innovation and technology in Africa between hubs and other key stakeholders such as investors, government, development partners, and entrepreneurs. This year Afrilabs Annual Gathering will take place in Cairo Egypt in October.

“Government not only has the mandate to create a friendly and favorable business environments but also to institute direct support to the innovation and startup ecosystem.”

Is it possible to build synergies among African hubs, labs and innovation centers with a view to engaging the global technology and investment markets via a common front – within the framework of Afrilab?

Yes. At the very core of the Afrilabs is the purpose of connecting hubs in Africa. Afrilabs provides a platform through which investors in the global tech markets can access information and deals on a single platform. Through our partners VC4Africa, we also provide any investor seeking out opportunities in Africa to meet startups seeking to raise funding across various fund rounds.
