00:03 It's a happy moment for celebrating the journey
00:28 that BBOXX has walked over the last 15 years.
00:32 I want to congratulate the co-founders who started BBOXX
00:37 and have continuously grown it to this milestone
00:43 that we are celebrating.
00:44 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:48 You guys, the talent pool.
00:51 I don't know, 15 years ago, most of you guys were kids, right?
00:55 In school, or living at home with your parents.
00:59 You did not exist 15 years ago, and now you exist, right?
01:04 Working here.
01:05 So when we decided last year, what
01:08 does our next 10 years look like?
01:10 For us, the truth is that we want to double down in Africa.
01:14 What does it mean to double down in Africa?
01:16 The only natural place felt to be here in Kigali.
01:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:23 I am really happy still to be here to celebrate with you,
01:26 because BBOXX is special to me.
01:29 It's special to me for a couple of reasons.
01:30 The first reason is actually when
01:33 I arrived in Rwanda in the summer of 2021,
01:36 actually BBOXX was the first field visit that I did.
01:40 We went together to see the model home, actually.
01:44 And I could see up close the excellent work that you do.
01:48 Congratulations to you all on this special day,
01:50 and I'm delighted to be with you.
01:52 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:55 I missed how I am today to be here again to visit BBOXX,
01:59 not on the other street, but here on this street.
02:04 It's such an important milestone for you, and for all of us,
02:08 and for what is possible.
02:10 So for you, the young people, I think
02:13 BBOXX is not just offering you a job.
02:15 I believe it is also offering you an opportunity
02:18 to do something even better than they are doing,
02:21 because they were thinking about something and doing it.
