 Konza is the Silicon valley of Africa, the project is set to be one of the most successful cities in Africa, competing economically and culturally with the best cities in the world.  Konza offers probably the best location to do business in Africa and one of the most sought after international commercial  investment opportunities. The new city provides some of the most valuable and sought after real estate in the country served by excellent communications and the best ICT infrastructure in Kenya. All this is set within a high quality masterplanned environment.
The new city is centrally located with excellent transport and communication links. Konza Technology City offers all the benefits of a greenfield, ‘clean sheet’ site but which is nevertheless right at the centre of things: 60km from the heart of Nairobi; 50Km from Jomo Kenyatta international airport; 500Km from Mombasa and its ports; the railway within 4Km. The masterplan for the 2,000 hectare city is based on successful new town projects around the world put together by an international team of experts, drawing on best practice from places such as the UK, China and Brazil to ensure global competitiveness.

Kenya economy can really use some diversification and it is every Kenyan dream for projects like Konza. The countries great minds need to be harnessed, Kenya minds have  brought new technology like MPESA ( Mobile money transfer services) and i can onli imagine what an ICT city will bring to the world.
