  Proud Accomplishments

Inspiration- Need of the Mathare people for lower cost goods and sustainable industries in the slum

What it does- Takes the loans made through other submission (S-Bob Loan Origination) and allows those with these loans to have lower interest and access to sellers platform in S-Bob Soko to sell their products at a lower price than the common marketplace.

How we built it- We built it using the Open APIs of Finastra and S-Bob App

Challenges we ran into- We ran into Language barriers, issues with electricity and technology, and a general lack of knowledge on how to do research on projects.

Accomplishments that we're proud of- We are proud to have learned how to navigate the internet and provide statistics that support our cause, we are also proud in that our idea will help the Mathare people come out of poverty (at some level), through use of the low cost goods.

What we learned- We learned what OpenAPI's were, what a circular economy was and how to connect our ideas for the Hackathon together to show the power of S-Bob's Open API's

What's next for S-Bob Soko (MarketPlace)- The S-Bob Soko will seek to get funds from the S-Bob Regeneration Fund submission, then it will use those funds to provide low cost loans to the Mathare people and then we will create the Soko on the app for all people to use that are members of S-Bob.
