['Jemima Mwachia']

Before his engagement to Charlene Ruto put him in Kenya’s spotlight, Isaya Yunge had already built a career spanning youth advocacy, scholarship technology, smart-home solutions and entrepreneurship across Africa.
At 17, Yunge spoke at the G8 Summit in Germany, an unusually early entry into international policy and leadership circles.
His appointment as a UNICEF Africa Youth Ambassador further positioned him among a generation of young Africans pushing education, entrepreneurship and youth development onto the global agenda.
Those accolades came as his career was evolving from youth advocacy into technology entrepreneurship.
But beneath the celebrity headlines is a technology and entrepreneurship career that began years before the engagement.
