To founders and funders, enjoy the intimate, intense & insightful conversation on - Successes & Failures in Blockchain tech. in a stubborn Web 3.0 world that I had with the very talented Dr. Rowa. A stage shared with my sage colleague Fattah Yatim, we covered tensions in regulation & innovation, Blockchain startups, success stories & how to induce overall change.
A seasoned critical Thinker and a results-oriented Pan-African leader. Dr Rowa possesses an admirable bias towards action. His solutionist approach and compliance know-how makes him a glove-fit for the continent and wider DLT sector. He is an aptly timed landing, particularly on the fintech end of the Blockchain spectrum.
We have reviewed the training materials and the accompanying manual on Leadership and Management which is excellent. Due to the high quality of work we have received, we intend on collaborating on other projects in the future.
My prophecy was true...!! The moment I met you I said to myself - This is one of the men who will lead change in Mother Africa...!! I beseech you to support our youth and remind them that Africa was the cradle of human civilization. We are just as good. Let we, Africans be authentic...!!

It’s rare that you get an opportunity to meet & remember unsung at times unknown great leaders/colleagues you encountered on your journey and who taught you what you know. My list of greats is endless from Hilangwa Maimbo, Dr. James Mwangi (Equity Bank Founder), Catherine Muraga, Joanna Bichsel, Michael Fortin and others. You, Sir, Dr. Julian Rowa are amongst the greats!
An incredible speaker. He took us through the journey of Socio-Emotional Skills Development. The emphasis and insights that stood out on the journey of self development included conceptualization, early growth, optimization, decline, and reinvention of self professionally or otherwise which deeply resonated with me.
An accomplished and exceptional facilitator and moderator with a strong ability to translate strategy into clear, actionable simple to use outcomes. He skillfully guides conversations from concept to practical execution, aligning diverse perspectives while maintaining focus on purpose and results. Great at concept actualization and positioning of Artificial Intelligence.
Catching up with Dr Rowa is like strapping into a rocket—no warm-up, immediate liftoff. One minute it’s "Hey," the next we’re debating the future of storytelling and questioning the universe over coffee. And by the way, if in Migori, swing by Kar-Kweh Sanctuary and let the art and serenity stir your thoughts. Kar Kweh is where you retreat to reset.
