    "content": "Kenya can provide leadership in start-ups. We are already doing very well in terms of start-ups. Kenya has been leading in Mpesa and money technologies. The entire East Africa from drones dropping medication and blood to hospitals to financial banking sector that is digitized. The European countries and the West are envious. Putting in place a legislative framework now is timely given just how much entrepreneurship exists in this country and how much we are already providing many of tomorrow’s solutions today. It is providing jobs to young people in many sectors. Madam Deputy Speaker, the Kenyan start-up is just very exciting in terms of the scene. We are seeing global investors paying attention. When Sen. Sakaja was moving the Bill, he told us that the globe is watching. It is not a lie. When Kenyan legislators are discussing issues of start-ups especially tech star- ups, many international investors, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), development partners are watching as well. Why are they watching? It is because there is something in it for them."
