It is possible. Period.
At Kytabu, we know we can give Africa’s children the tools built for their context and powered for the future. By integrating AI into everyday learning, we can help teachers teach better, students learn smarter, and schools operate more efficiently — all while keeping education affordable, accessible, and deeply local.
Re-imagine Education in Africa
In this conversation, Bill Gates and Tonee Ndungu explore how artificial intelligence can reshape education for millions of learners across Africa. From enabling local-language instruction to providing real-time classroom support, the conversation highlights why the future of education must be inclusive, contextual, and tech-enabled.
Kytabu sits at the intersection of innovation and necessity where AI tools are built not just to impress, but to solve the real challenges African educators and students face every day. With wearables for teachers, multimodal learning for students, and AI-powered dashboards for schools, we’re not imagining the future — we’re building it.
Empowering African Education
Founded in 2012, KYTABU exists to enable African learning institutions and students to leverage education technology platforms and content to meet their learning objectives. We believe technology can help institutions in Africa to make better data-driven decisions that put them in a better financial and educational position to positively impact learners. We also know, when students and their educators are well equipped with the right localized and relevant learning resources, their chance of success is exponentially higher.
