Africa is the future.

The emergence of a hardware product from an African company marks a phase-change point for tech invention. The BRCK shows that great ideas can come from anywhere, that innovation comes from solving real problems with constrained resources.

If we continue doing the right things in Africa, we can create a very exciting and competitive global market here.

What is innovation if not our ticket to every business interest in the world? It's the ticket to solving the world's problems - the energy problems, the pollution problems, the global warming problems. If it isn't for science and engineering, how will we compete in the new world?

The innovation is going to come, and that is good for everybody.

Innovation is what we're going to need for the future, and that's always been a part of the technology industry.

At its heart, engineering is about using science to find creative, practical solutions. It is a noble profession.

We're only going to be able to compete in the world if we continue to be innovative.

The only people who can fix Africa are talented young Africans. By unlocking and nurturing their creative potential, we can create a step change in Africa's future.

As engineers, we were going to be in a position to change the world - not just study it.
