Business conferences... They're often a little boring 😴 .
Lectures that go on for hours... Awkward conversations with people you don't know... What if it could be more like a party?
This Saturday we hosted the first ever MESH FEST! And it was an absolute blast. We brought together 100 MESH power users, our team, and our partners.
Eight hours of MESH In Real Life. MESHERS from all corners of Kenya - and from all areas of business. Some of whom have been with us from the very start.
Check out the lovely faces of the day... Some video of the event is coming soon.🌟
Some highlights of the day:
Miss Kahiro and Bakari Salim, our MCs, brought the good vibes.
A raw and honest group conversation: is it really possible for young Kenyans to make money online? Alphonse, Paul and Kamwari took the stage to share their perspectives, led by Opondo Okoth.
Wanjiru Gathanga led a breakout session on personal branding and self-promotion.
Roy Kanyi shared how he monetized his creator biz on tiktok step by step. David Kache gave the skinny on how to use international platforms like Alibaba to import goods cheaply. Super valuable advice!
Millie and Otachi got everyone on their feet for an exercise about money.
The product team, Tessie Waithira and Brian Wambura, worked with MESHERS to hear what their dream MESH app would look like.
