It is with great pleasure that we announce that the SwahiliBox <http://swahilibox.co.ke> IoT (Internet of Things <http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/Internet-of-Things>) Lab is now in operation. We have with us kits that will allow the community to learn more about hardware and achieving home and business process automation or even industrial automation, and how to hack hardware to allow us to achieve that. In addition to this, the coming school holidays will also see us introducing an accelerator course for home automation <http://swahilibox.co.ke/posters/training/IoT-Holiday-Classes-Flyer.jpg> - how you can use hardware to create an automated home. These courses will run for a very reasonable fee and we welcome those with high school kids or even college level students to apply for this accelerator course. If interested in this please contact us. More details here <http://swahilibox.co.ke/posters/training/IoT-Holiday-Classes-Flyer.jpg>. These programs will be available for those who will be in Mombasa. Thank you, and looking forward to developing amazing things with SwahiliBox. -- *Ahmed Maawy* Executive Director - SwahiliBox / M-Power (CBO) Shaper - Global Shapers Ambassador - Open Knowledge Director - Startup Grind Mombasa Software Developer - EveryLayer (KE) +254 714 960 627 Skype: ultimateprogramer swahilibox.co.ke m-power.or.ke www.globalshapers.org <http://globalshapers.org/> www.okfn.org <http://okfn.org/> startupgrind.com www.everylayer.com
