Founder brief

Who should attend

Founders building in artificial intelligence, software as a service, or cybersecurity will find direct value in the technical roadmap discussions. Technical co-founders and product leads seeking practical exposure to current cloud infrastructure, machine learning stacks, and web engineering tools are ideally suited for the programming.

What happens

Starting at 08:00, the schedule runs across two days featuring keynotes, technical sessions, and hands-on code labs. Programming concentrates on AI, cloud architecture, mobile development, and security practices, with designated spaces throughout the agenda for builders to connect.

Who's in the room

Around 1,000 developers, software engineers, and company creators assemble across the venue floor. Organized by GDG Nairobi, the crowd comprises practicing builders, technical specialists, and local founders working on deploying production-grade systems.

How to prepare

Bring a fully configured development laptop to participate effectively in the code labs without delays. Prepare concise explanations of your product architecture and technical bottlenecks, allowing you to engage other engineers and potential hires during the dedicated networking intervals between technical sessions.
