I am so concerned about making an impact (no matter the size) in my Country but it seems, There is little opportunities for young innovator like me who never been in university, coming from poor Country, who as only their ideas and courage as proof of their qualification!
Is this should be a reason why we Will be overlooked,or a préjudice not to be consider as elite or architect of tomorrow?

Keith Kevo Hi there. I feel very encouraged and hopeful to see that young people still engage in active debate about issues that have to do with improving the human condition. Just want to say KUDOS to all you guys. Keep doing what you do, and lets change the world one stroke of ink (or keyboard) at a time.
