Bridging the Gap Between AI and Education: ALX at the Tukuza Innovation Bootcamp in Meru

Last Saturday, we had the privilege of participating in the Tukuza Innovation Bootcamp in Meru, a vibrant gathering that brought together over 120 high school students and 100 teachers, all deeply passionate about the future of STEM education in Kenya.

This event marked a powerful moment in our mission to bridge the gap between technology and education, while reinforcing ALX's growing role as a trusted partner in Kenya’s STEM education ecosystem. The energy in the room was electric, fueled by curiosity, creativity, and a shared belief in the power of innovation to shape brighter futures.

A highlight of the day was a dynamic masterclass delivered by Esther Kariuki, our Marketing and Recruitment Manager, titled “Artificial Intelligence in Class.” She broke down the concept of AI into practical, relatable terms, sparking powerful conversations about how AI is reshaping industries, classrooms, and career paths alike. Teachers and students alike left the session energized, better informed, and excited about the possibilities that AI brings to the learning experience.

In addition to the learning and inspiration, the bootcamp provided an opportunity to build lasting connections with educators from across the region, laying the groundwork for future collaborations that will continue to empower the next generation of tech talent.
