The iHub catalyses the growth of the Kenyan tech community by connecting people, supporting startups, and surfacing information. Since inception in March 2010, the iHub has grown through overcoming challenges as well as consistently and fiercely adapting toward serving our tech community.

This has been through initiatives such as iHub Research, m:lab (with eMobilis and University of Nairobi), Consulting, the UX Lab; and in 2014, together with Sanergy, Ushahidi and BRCK we started Gearbox, a design and rapid prototyping facility to be strategically located in the industrial area of Nairobi, with a smaller location within the iHub at Bishop Magua Centre.
