Over the past decade, I've been fortunate to participate in many collaborations across the Continent in support of cities. The MijiBora platform brings together everything I have learnt and more. I look forward to supporting the growth of this platform into a network of changemakers.

Being part of this collaborative platform has been an invaluable experience. It has given practitioners like myself the opportunity to engage, share knowledge, and learn from each other’s lessons in a way that truly fosters innovation. The ability to brainstorm new ideas, share resources, and solve problems collectively has made a tangible difference in how we navigate the challenges of digital transformation. OCL’s expertise in working with African cities, combined with their unwavering support, has made them the ideal host for this platform. Their team is always willing to guide and assist, and I have no doubt that this initiative will continue to empower city practitioners to drive real change.

The only reliable and repeatable patterns in digital transformation are teams delivering real change and sharing what works. OCL manages to combine technical expertise about digital and data infrastructure, community building and a commitment to better more livable cities.
