Great interview and images of Cameroon. BW seeing Fritz Ekwoge, the "serial Cameroonian IT entrepreneur" was also a highlight; He is such a little kid - definitely the future of Cameroon. For those who want to know what I am talking about, check out this link:

Access to social,financial capital and other resources are definitely hard to come by in Cameroon, particularly for youth. The good news is that Limbe Labs is providing this opportunity to our young people and leveraging what they bring to the table: enthusiasm, drive and ingenuity. Everyone wins! Great job.
