We'll be looking forward to a spectacle of an event. Just recently the Nairobi University acquired a <a href="fab.cba.mit.edu" rel="nofollow">FabLab</a> which is going to be part of a larger Government Sponsored Science Park. It is now under the University of Nairobi's Engineering Department. So far we have some of the innovators that have been recently highlighted in the media pursuing their projects with our equipment. These are <a href="http://www.afrigadget.com/2009/07/21/fish-call-the-fisherman/" rel="nofollow">Pascal Katana</a> and <a href="http://www.afrigadget.com/2009/07/07/simon-mwauras-mobile-remote-control-inventions/" rel="nofollow">Simon Mwaura</a>. More will be published on a website under development. @sachmo It was announced at the Maker Faire that the next will be held next year in Nairobi, Kenya.
