About

Hello my name is Robert and I am a Techprenuer, Socialprenuer and an Advocate of the High Court of Kenya. I lead an award winning team at My Shamba Digital where I am the Founder and CEO. My Shamba Digital is an online platform built to make conveyancing and matters related to land assets easier. I am also a Co-Founder at Sheria Online. Sheria Online is a Digital platform that seeks to bridge the access to Legal Information and Justice gap in Kenya.

Some of my notable achievements at the helm of both Startups have been:
1. I was featured in Africa’s Top 50 in Legal Innovation (2021) a list compiled by Africa Tech Law and the Lawyers hub.
2. Winner Best Tech Solution at the Africa Legal Innovation Hackathon 2021
3. Nominee as the Startup of the Year in the Founder of the Year Awards 2022
4. Nominee as the Techprenuer of the Year 2022 (Under 30) in the Founder of the Year Awards 2022
5. Nominee as the Startup of the Year 2022 in the Startupper Challenge of the Year by Total Energies (Startup under 3 years old Category)
6. Nominee as the Most Innovative Startup in the Finnovating Awards 2022
7. Nominee as the Most Sustainable Startup in the Finnovating Awards 2022
8. Nominee as the Most Influential Startup in the Finnovating Awards 2022
9. Finalist at the HiiL 2021 African Justice Innovation Symposium.
10. Finalist at the Global Legal Hackathon 2022

I’m looking to support early stage startup founders in their set-up phase as I believe mentors can add the most value then. My interests are Legaltech, Proptech, Fintech, social media platforms and anything related to Blockchain.
