Behind his handsome residence, at the edge of a quiet garden, under his large, elegant gazebo, Ken Njoroge often mulls over the questions that cling to quiet minds. “I generally don’t think that human beings have changed for generations.

Ken builds companies. First, Three Mice, a web development firm, started with friends. Then his crown jewel — Cellulant— the financial technology company that began as an idea sketched on a serviette.
