The iHub catalyses the growth of the Kenyan tech community by connecting people, supporting startups, and surfacing information. Since inception in March 2010, the iHub has grown through overcoming challenges as well as consistently

and fiercely adapting toward serving the Kenyan tech community. This has been through initiatives such as iHub Research, m:lab (with eMobilis and University of Nairobi), Consulting, the UX Lab; and

Gearbox, a design and rapid prototyping facility to be strategically located in the industrial area of Nairobi, with a smaller location within the iHub at Bishop Magua Centre.
