LuLu Cable Targets Kenya’s Coastal Digital Economy with Five Landing Points and a 2028 Service Date - KachTech Media (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kenya’s coastline could gain a new digital backbone connecting industrial zones, businesses and technology investors from Mombasa to Lamu following the announcement of the LuLu Coastal Cable System at ITW Africa 2026. Announced on September 9, the system will connect five landing points: Mombasa, Vipingo Special Economic Zone, Kilifi, Malindi and Lamu. It will combine a submarine cable with a parallel terrestrial route, creating alternative paths for data along the coastal corridor. The project
Three brands, one bet: Inside the Asante Global Card - KachTech Media (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Absa, Kenya Airways and Visa are not merely issuing another premium credit card. They are building a three-sided ecosystem intended to convert everyday purchases into travel—and occasional passengers into permanent customers.
