Microsoft has launched CityNext in Kenya; this is a people-first approach to innovation that empowers governments, businesses and citizens to shape the future of their cities. The forum that brought together key Government officials at County and State levels, key influencers, policy-makers and change agents in Kenya, focused on insights and case studies on optimizing revenue collection, improving performance management, enhancing security, re-imagining citizen and judiciary services, enhancing productivity and establishing e-office efficiency.

The Principal Secretary in the Ministry of ICT Hon. Joseph Tiampati, present in the forum, said that ICT had become a vital part of government and public services all over the world and that citizens and businesses were increasingly demanding better public services thus putting pressure on the public administration and the government to deliver.

”Government remains committed to supporting private sector initiatives such as CityNext that go a long way in ensuring that governments, businesses and citizens have access to innovative and modern ICT services, ”he further stated

Commenting on the CityNext Launch, Microsoft Kenya’s Country Director Kunle Awosika said that CityNext enables cities to operate more efficiently and serve citizens as “One City” across critical functions that include energy and water; buildings, infrastructure and planning; transportation; public safety and justice; tourism, recreation and culture; education; health and social services; and government administration.

“Microsoft remains committed to supporting Kenya’s growing technology sector so as to enhance competitiveness and transformation across national government, county governments and all key priority sectors.” he added.
