From fiber optics to AI: How Kenya can lead Africa's digital future
What if AI could help a farmer decide what to grow, how much to invest and whether a crop is likely to make a profit?
In Episode 36 of Connecting The Dots, Professor Bitange Ndemo shares how data and AI could help farmers compare their options and make more informed decisions about their livelihoods.
It’s a different way of thinking about AI. Not just as a tool for writing, creating or automating tasks, but as something that could help solve everyday challenges.
But for that to happen, the technology needs to work for the people using it. That means thinking about access, local languages, relevant data and the realities farmers face.
So, if you could use AI to solve one challenge in your community, what would it be?
Tell us in the comments. We’d love to hear what you think.

Pelvic pain, and the minimally invasive fix
What happens when one woman's search for answers becomes a mission to transform healthcare for thousands more?
This week in partnership with CHReaD, we sit down with Faith Wanjeri, Co Founder and CEO of The HEM Practice, to explore why women's pain is too often dismissed, how minimally invasive surgery is changing lives, and what it takes to make advanced healthcare more accessible across East Africa.
From personal experience to healthcare innovation, this conversation challenges us to rethink what access, equity and patient centred care really mean.
If you've ever wondered how science moves beyond research and into real lives, this episode is for you.

Scaling Health Innovations in Africa
Great science doesn’t always reach the people it’s meant to serve. In our newest episode of #ConnectingTheDots, we sit down with Dr. Robert Karanja, biomedical scientist and entrepreneur, to unpack one of the biggest challenges facing African innovation.
Together, we explore why promising discoveries often struggle to become products, how innovation ecosystems can bridge the gap between research and industry, and why locally developed solutions are essential for addressing local health challenges.
This conversation goes beyond entrepreneurship. It is about building the systems that allow science to create societal and economic value.
