If only as a country we could INVEST in such young minds to move Kenya to the next level of innovation! I would close an institution to direct funds in creating a million such Kenyans!
 
I dare add that we need to nurture a “new breed of young people” who exude self-confidence; who demonstrate effective leadership with integrity; who have the ethos of community service; and who take the appropriate risks to innovate and to develop successful enterprises! A holistic solution!
 
Congratulations to the quad!
 
Edith
