The time: AD2000. The place: Nairobi. In the US it's the year of the first dot com bust. In Nairobi, dozens of internet startups pitch ideas and services to investors and customers. At the time, broadband is still 10 years away! Most of the companies featured in the video are still around, testament to the resilience of the founders. In Kenya, the failure of a business is unforviging. Business owners would rather switch to selling eggs than shutting their tech business down!
The video was shot on a handheld Sony VX1000 by a crew of 2 (one holds the mic) and edited overnight on FinalCut 1.25! No lights, reflectors, etc!
