CarMedialab at the 5th German-African Business Summit with Robert Habeck

From December 1 to 3, Henri Depe Tchatchu, COO of CarMedialab, was part of a business delegation led by the Federal Minister of Economics and Vice Chancellor Dr. Robert Habeck. The trip took them to Nairobi, Kenya, where the 5th German-African Business Summit (GABS) took place. This event is the most important platform for exchange between business and political leaders from Germany and the sub-Saharan African region.

Business Dialogue for a Sustainable Future

The goal of the GABS is clear: to strengthen economic relations, promote innovative solutions and jointly develop ways to ensure a sustainable future. The importance of this cooperation is becoming increasingly clear, especially in the context of global challenges such as energy transition and digitalization.

In Nairobi, the Summit provided a valuable platform to exchange ideas with policy makers, business leaders and innovative start-ups. The discussions and new impulses show the importance of breaking down barriers and working together for a better future.

Supporting young talent

During the trip, the business delegation visited two institutions: “iHUB Nairobi”, a technology and innovation incubator, and “The Toolkit for Skills and Innovation”, a young talent development initiative. The visits demonstrated how young people can be empowered through targeted support and access to technology to develop innovative solutions and compete in a globalized economy.

Collaboration with Nakama Tech

Another highlight of the trip was the deepening of our partnership with Nakama Tech, a company we have been working with successfully for almost two years. This cooperation has not only contributed to the creation of jobs in Nairobi, but has also created significant value for CarMedialab. 

Together we have created a hub of system specialists that strengthens the development and support of CarMedialab’s software solutions. This partnership shows how cross-border cooperation can create win-win situations – a model we will continue to develop.

Shaping the mobility transformation together

For us at CarMedialab, it’s clear that technological innovation and sustainable mobility can only be achieved by working together on a global scale. The exchange during the trip and the experiences on site showed us once again how important it is to create synergies between continents and to learn from each other.

We would like to thank Dr. Robert Habeck, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection and the German Chamber of Commerce and Industry in East Africa (AHK East Africa) for organizing this unforgettable trip and giving us the opportunity to be part of this inspiring network.
