At Nest, we run one of the biggest and the most consistent thought-leadership series in the Nairobi Innovation Ecosystem called the #WhatsNext which focuses on up and coming trends in different verticals of the ecosystem. The event brings together some of the brightest minds in a particular sector to have intellectual and communal discussions about various issues affecting an industry and to predict the next big thing in the next 5 years.

Since the series launched we have run over 25 panel discussions across multiple industries consistently attracting key startup founders, government officials, investors, corporate executives and academics.

In March, we will be revisiting the financial sector with a focus of discussing the next wave of financial services in developing regions with a focus on digital identity, the new network effect, going beyond access to usage and collaboration initiatives that include fintech, regtech and mega platforms.
