CEO
Tom Kirkwood
We launched Africa Insight in Nairobi in 2012 to continue to connect the continent. By connecting audiences with each other and with the information needed to develop as one people and one society.
Since then, we've delivered content and advisory services for scores of clients, ranging from TV shows, channels and networks, to news and aid agencies, philanthropies and corporates, throughout the length and breadth of Africa.
We believe in the potential of new technologies and in the resilience and brilliance of the people we work with. So while we operate largely in the cloud, we will build what you need on the ground, ensuring it will operate 24/7, year in and year out.
Thanks to the wide experience of a team steeped in international content creation and event management, we are worth talking to. We'd love to help build what you need, on budget and on time. Let's build Africa's future, together.
Tom Kirkwood has thirty years of experience working in content in Asia, the Middle East and Africa. He started Africa InSight in 2012 after 18 years with Reuters News.
