and mesh networks too
But an exchange and the biggest online payment processor in Africa is a good start..

Great event! Totally my pleasure.

The documentary is still 'work-in-progress' and I'm hoping to get some feedback. The beautiful animation was created by http://proofofwork.media/ Creative Director and co-founder Louis Chang. Thanks!

@CliveK:
CitiBank, Kenya Commercial Bank, Barclays and Standard and Charted (and the list goes on)..but how easy is it for someone from Kibera (Southern Nairobi), with a dense population of nearly 4 Million people, to open an account?
Let's say their last name starts with an Ou, how easy is it then?
