@lebillouxe ... an impact/business opportunity as well for entrepreneurs to bridge that knowledge gap... perhaps @BintiRutamu will expand the scope of ITALANTO.

Iconic weekend for Rwanda & sports. Sport is talent, joy, jobs, tourism, investment and global visibility. Rwanda is proud to be part of building that future for Rwandans and for Africa. Africans shine in global sport and should definitely share in its business. Warm regards from the finals. #Twaje. Let’s go RSSB tigers! #VisitRwanda

Africa CEO Forum @africaceoforum

🎯 Few names embody Rwanda's digital transformation as concretely as Israel Bimpe. As CEO of @TeamIrembo, the leading digital services partner of the Government of Rwanda, he leads the platform that has put more than 100 public services into the hands of Rwandan citizens through IremboGov, and which last year launched IremboApp, a mobile super app delivering essential services in Kinyarwanda, English and French. Before Irembo, he led Zipline's Africa go-to-market, scaling the drone delivery network from one to five African countries, building a career that has consistently sat at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and public service impact. 💡 His message at the Africa CEO Forum 2026 in Kigali captured what makes him stand out. What excites him most, he said, is the question of how to get everyone to work and how to harness the power and potential of technology to deliver real progress for people across the continent. The driver behind it all, he added, is curiosity, because there is still so much left to discover. 🌍 This is precisely the spirit of the new African tech narrative the Forum is putting forward this year. Africa as a tech and data producer rather than consumer. Digital infrastructure built for current realities rather than imported templates. And, crucially, technology measured not by its sophistication but by its ability to deliver tangible outcomes for citizens, workers, and businesses. The fact that this conversation is happening in Kigali, with Irembo as one of the host country's most visible digital champions, is no coincidence. 📍 Kigali, 14–15 May 2026. #ACF2026 #AfricaCEOForum

From early mornings to late evenings, across different roles and places, work takes many forms but every effort, every contribution, and every hand involved plays a part in making everyday life possible. Today, we celebrate everyone who shows up and puts in the work, with care. Happy International Labour Day. 🇷🇼

32 years on, remembrance remains a responsibility that must be upheld with care. Today, and every day, Irembo pays tribute to the victims of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, and to a future shaped by unity, dignity, and shared humanity. #Kwibuka32
