Thank you @JBReefer ! Some of the advantages include a large english speaking population. Africa has 54 states, of which 23 are english speaking countries and 21 have their official language as French but speak English as well, the second would be countries like Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania have a closer time-zone proximity to Europe and finally we have thousands of young graduates looking for work. The pricing difference is negligible at around 5% lower for top tech talent in comparison to Europe. The biggest deterrent has always been the price of internet connectivity and that has recently become very affordable at around $50 for 10 Megabyte due to high internet penetration and not to mention mobile money. Kenya happens to have had the 10 largest community on Elance before the merger with Odesk and that has been our testing market. Thank you and blessings
