Hello World! We bring you greetings from Karabow - a place where reality is made up of dreams.
Karabow is a Nigerian technology startup that has the audacious goal of pushing back the frontiers of technology in Africa.
We are a group of young
dreamers who believe nothing is beyond the ability of an African. As a continent Africa has produced great statesmen,
great athletes, great musicians, great writers. Karabow is here to add great scientists and engineers to that list. This is the passion that burns
within us.
At Karabow, we are poised to make a big difference in the field of computer science, with emphasis of mobile and web technologies, including their
hardware components. Karabow is a company always on the move. At any point in time we have a number of products under development across the
fields of hardware, software and web technologies. We will be releasing more information on our products and projects as time goes by, but it would
suffice to mention two very big projects we are working on.
First, we are working on these cool devices. The picture above shows some early samples of our devices. A lot has changed since then, and we will be
unveiling their new looks in weeks to come. Most of our mobile devices are rich and powerful smart phones. They come with features you would expect
in a smart phone. But they also have other cool features. In addition to these, we are always dreaming up features we will like to implement.
As it is beyond the scope of this article to discuss these features, we will leave that for coming articles. We want to do something really
special with our devices.
The other project we will be touching is what we are calling Melon OS (see above), our operating system. We are well aware of the fact that developing
operating systems is a very rare practice in this part of the world. We are privileged to have access to relevant information and tools
required for the development of an OS. We are basing Melon OS on Android initially but, as we increase in knowledge and
manpower, we will begin to deviate from Android. This deviation will allow us implement features that cannot currently be implemented on
Android, features which may include the ability to run Windows apps. Melon OS will remain compatible with Android apps.
A brief history. Karabow was founded on the 4th of April, 2012 by
Wisdom Kwati. He currently serves as the
CEO of the company. On the 15th of April, 2013 the company was incorporated. Office work started on the 1st of December, 2014. 2015 will be our
first operational year. It has been a wild and interesting journey up to this point, and we owe all we have managed to do to divine providence.
We have great plans, and you should have great expectations. We are all out to make this country (and continent) proud, and we wish to have your
support, even as you patronise our products.
It is our sincere hope that in the future, when people talk about the great hi-tech revolution that rocked Africa, Karabow will be mentioned as
one of the agents that made that possible.
