The Global Entrepreneurship Summit curtains may have closed but the doors of entrepreneurship remain wide open. We must continue the entrepreneurship conversation to enhance existing enterprises and trigger new ones.
Before the curtains closed on the Summit, a Kenyan enterprise known as Illuminum Greenhouses put our country on the global entrepreneurial map by winning second place in the Global Innovation through Science and Technology competition. Their victory also clinched them $15,000 (Sh1.5 million). Their idea of building greenhouses with sensor technology has reminded us of the immense agricultural and economic potential of greenhouses.
