Every goal at the @FIFAWorldCup โšฝ started long before the tournament did, in a training ground, a youth academy, and the infrastructure that gave a talented player somewhere to develop into the athlete the world is now watching. At Konza Technopolis, we're building exactly that. The Silicon Savannah has an artificial soccer pitch for competitive use, where you can invest and build value around talent. We are open for business. ๐Ÿค Interested investors, institutions, and partners can reach us through email at konza@konza.go.ke or call 254 204 343 013
