The President of Kenya and the Prime Minister of Ethiopia visited the @GiveWork_ & @SamaAI teams and heard from African entrepreneurs / Give Work challenge winners about the companies they are building!
Even more impressive -- they only had a few hours notice these two world leaders were coming!
Thank you @WilliamsRuto & @AbiyAhmedAli for your visit and for highlighting African entrepreneurship. PROUD of the LJF and Sama teams!
