Youth entrepreneurs and their investors who openly partner Kenya's IHUB 1 2 stand
out in terms of exponential impact analysis conducted for the Good Hubs Guide
since 2006. After the top down failures and tragedies (eg 7/7) of London's 2005
Year of Make Poverty History and its Commission for Africa, pro-youth
economists started tracking
hub movements. London had
contributed an early manifestation of hubsworld with what was first named
Islington's the-hub.net.
Kenya's Ihub
emerged 2008 at the same time as Ushahidi rapidly became Kenya's largest
open software business. Hubs can provide emotionally energising space and
networking goodwill for youth entrepreneurs to conceive, incubate, collaborate
and attract youth-webbed (eg kiva, or crowd-investing), patient (eg
acumen) or sustainability investors. They also open job creation doors in ways
that universities and old schooling systems fail to do wherever academia orders
examinations and paper certificates as a human's final exit to learning and
doing.

gamechanging contribution to social credit partnerships of Women4Empowerment
