Microsoft launches third AppFactory in Kenya at ADMI

The Africa Digital Media Institute (ADMI) has collaborated with Microsoft to open an AppFactory at the institution’s downtown Nairobi campus.

AppFactory will form part of ADMI’s Mobile App & Game Development Program, a joint press statement from ADMI and Microsoft said.

Through the Microsoft 4Afrika Initiative, the AppFactory at ADMI seeks to establish “a dynamic apprenticeship platform addressing the mismatch of skills in the East African software, games and mobile application market.”

With an AppFactory at USIU-Africa, and another at the Mawingu Networks headquarters in Nanyuki, this marks the third AppFactory in Kenya as well as the 18th on African soil.
