MobiTechno, the team that won first prize at our Mobile Application Competition, has some dramatic updates.  The team has developed their AITI project into a registered Kenyan company.  They have also copyrighted their idea.  More exciting, their service is now hosted in Kenya with an SMS service provider.  The service has an SMS shortcode which allows users to access their service via SMS with a short, 5 digit number.  They are meeting with advisors and venture capitalists, contacts they made through the AITI course.  The service is currently being tested through a limited rollout.  More news as it develops.
