Limited Boundaries? Not as per the Slum Fest.

Technology is definitely on business tool you need to embrace

By now, I suppose you are aware that the 6^th Slam Fest took place sometime last week. Woe unto you if you had no idea of what this is because by now, whoever attended the tech Festival is by now putting into play the sentiments aired by the attendants. There was a lot to learn and ape from fellow business people and other tech exhibitors. In my opinion, awesome would not be enough a compliment for that. Super awesome, that is it.

The theme of the fest was 'the power of infinite possibilities - leveraging the ICT space' and I presume you considered this a serious only geek faces event. However, this was not the case as it was more of an entertainment event. All class and no play makes Jack a dull boy you know, this is exactly what made the event a unique experience.

This time, not only for you, but we got an all new dimension to the way we at KB do things. Since we have always worked towards ensuring quality service delivery,, from this event we built an all new dimension on the way we do things even in our office.

Considering the uniqueness of the festival, we decided to get a new and unique way to improve our products for you. Take two “You sure do not have to wear that tough face to deliver a point”

From the interactions with the exhibitors, it is evident that people are working round the clock in seeing to it that solutions arise from the advantages of the internet. People are working round the clock inventing and building ideas based on existing problems.

You now side with me that the slam fest was not just the usual events we attend and slam you with content, but a partnership and event that definitely bring a change in the way you will be receiving information.

Not only for my new way of reporting, but even the activities in the three blogs that I run as well as participation in brainstorming sessions have definitely changed. Talking to different attendants after the festival, most business managers emphasized on the new measures they would take whenever they hold their office meetings and brain storming sessions.

This is a change any business set up could emulate given that constant interactions among employees and the management help in building the employer – employee relationships as well as increase revenue generation since this interactions help increase the product value.

Talking on Employee-employer relationships and brainstorming, I confirm there is more in the tunnel. From the event coverage, you get the understanding of why technology is quickly taking pace, reiterating comments from known local artiste -Juliani, we understand that the internet is not only a source of fun and entertainment but  a place you can share an idea and probably get an idea as well.

Roughly 60% of Kenya’s vision 2030 focused on the internet and the online platform as a tool of propulsion for the vision to succeed. Professor Mugo Kibati echoed the departments’ vision saying that with solutions online and business people taking advantage of the online medium, it will be easy and quick to reach all the components of the Vision 2030.

Speaker by speaker, heaped praise on the Slam Fest 2012 organizers as this fest comes at a time when Kenya is ranked among the best countries in Africa when it comes to offering solutions online as well as with the best internet speeds and connectivity in Africa.
