The Final Week
We are officially one week away from the 88mph Demo Day and concurrently, my final day of work in Nairobi. It’s flown by and we’re making it go even faster with how busy we are getting everything ready. Pitch practice, booth design, financial scenarios, you name it, we’re getting it ready.

My Gift to Kenya
Besides the hours and hours of work I put in I decided today to go a step further. The introduction of beer pong. We all had a blast and I showed them why I’m feared at many tables around the world (not really). I think this will soon be a weekly thing.
Manyatta Rent Website Launched
I finally finished Manyatta Rent’s website today. Check it out: http://www.manyattarent.com. It’s nothing amazing, but should do for Demo Day.
88mph Startup Gallery
I threw these posters together a month ago that provide an outline for each of the startups for the 88mph 2012 fall group. Thought I’d share and see if you can learn a bit about what each is trying to achieve.
We’ve come a long way since then and I look forward to sharing the final product from Demo Day on December 13th.
