Walure, a leading technology and talent firm with a 15-year legacy of driving enterprise and career growth across West Africa, proudly announces the successful opening of its strategic hub in Nairobi, Kenya.
This expansion marks a bold step toward accelerating East Africa’s digital transformation. Walure aims to train and deploy 600+ highly skilled Kenyan tech professionals into the local ecosystem within the next year, empowering businesses and directly bridging the region’s talent gap.
Founded in 2010 as Smartware Solutions, the company spent its first decade executing high-impact, mission-critical projects across key industries. A transformative rebranding in 2019 gave rise to Walure, expanding its scope to deliver a full-stack ecosystem solution built on three pillars:
• Business Consulting
• Tech Training (Walure Academy)
• Tech Talent Outsourcing
Through this model, Walure Academy has already trained over 3,500 professionals across the continent, forming a proven blueprint for talent development.
Walure’s credibility stems from its track record of delivering precise, scalable tech solutions to industry leaders such as Interswitch, Wema Bank, Leadway Assurance, and Equity Bank.
Now, Walure brings its proven blueprint to Nairobi, ready to make an immediate impact. The initiative focuses on tackling youth unemployment by equipping Kenyan graduates and undergraduates with hands-on labs, real-world project experience, and access to global opportunities. Walure will also introduce iPOS by Walure, its proprietary inventory and process automation software, to help Kenyan online businesses streamline operations and reduce costs.
Vision Unveiled: The path forward
The official launch event, held on Saturday, November 15, 2025, successfully inaugurated the Nairobi Hub, gathering Walure’s leadership, investors, media, and key tech professionals. During the forum, Walure formally unveiled its comprehensive three-year vision for scaling East Africa’s digital economy, emphasising deep local partnerships and immediate talent deployment across the region.
Samuel Adeleye, CEO of Walure, shares:
“This expansion has always been more than a business move; it’s a belief in Africa’s interconnected potential. We’ve refined our model in tough markets, so we’re not starting slow in East Africa. We’re here to activate Kenya’s tech economy from day one.
