Two NTV Presenters discussing Konza City noted many are asking if is just a real estate venture or a really a tech city.

They also noted many software developers work from home or incubation hubs and are being served well already in Nairobi.

They did not note online services (developed by software engineers) reside in data centers.

Many data centers now reside in 20 or 40 foot containers.

Do we not need more buildings/towns developed/optimized for such (data containers)?

Kenya is doing well building infrastructure, now we are moving deeper into the information age / knowledge economy :)
