1 Coworking Spaces in Moshi

About Moshi

Sitting near the Kenyan border in northern Tanzania, Moshi is known as the gateway to Kilimanjaro National Park, which is where you will find Africa's highest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. A major coffee producing hub cloaked in coffee farms, it is a medium-sized vibrant town that will make you fall in love with East Africa. There is a definite blend of African and Asian influences to tease your senses. Coworking spaces are opening their doors in Moshi to support its local tech savvy souls who wish to come up with their first unicorn, which maybe should be named "Zebra-corn".

As with the rest of the continent of Africa, Moshi faces the same problems in its startup scene. There is light at the end of the tunnel though as the government restructures policy framework and invests into the ecosystem fostering a strong base for innovation, regulations and governance that will support the startup scene. Today more organizations are getting involved in creating bootcamps and startup programs allowing creative individuals, groups and startups a way forward towards growth.

Tanzania is the land of climbers or those who may be recovering from climbing the behemoth Kilamanjaro. Apart from these intrepid adrenalin junkies into self-punishment, there are plenty of other sights such as cultural tours and hikes around the mountain's lower regions. You can head out into the bush and attempt to spot the "Big Five" (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant and Cape buffalo), check out the natural wonder of the Ngorongoro Crater or gape at the vast plains of the Serengeti. It's even possible to take a dip in the hot springs at Kikuletwa with or without your rubber ducky. In the town's streets there is a plethora of restaurants dishing up traditional Swahili dishes as well as Indian, Italian or whatever else you may be craving.

Coworking in Moshi may turn out to be a case of where you run to in between playing with the African animals or reclining by a swimming pool with a beer in your hand.
