konnekt's CEO honoured in the Australian High Commission's Faces of Connection exhibition

konnekt's Co-Founder and CEO, Shaun Morgan, has been honoured as one of the people featured in Kenya–Australia: Faces of Connection, a portrait exhibition hosted by the Australian High Commission in Kenya. The exhibition launched in Nairobi on 29 October 2026.

Faces of Connection is a photo exhibition and storytelling project. It celebrates the people whose work is strengthening connections between Australia, Kenya and East Africa, across business, public service, culture and community.

The konnekt story

Shaun's portrait tells the konnekt story. konnekt is a Kenya-based internet service provider dedicated to bridging the digital divide in East Africa. We run high-speed fibre broadband into the dense urban neighbourhoods that other operators have overlooked, at a price households can afford. Alongside the network, we provide content and digital literacy for people coming online for the first time, and partnerships rooted in the communities we serve.

“Our belief is simple: connectivity is a universal right, and digital dignity matters.”

Shaun Morgan, Co-Founder and CEO, konnekt

People. Partnerships. Possibilities.

The recognition reflects the growing links between Australia and East Africa that konnekt is part of. Earlier this month, konnekt joined the Australia East Africa Chamber of Commerce to connect Australian operators, technology partners and investors with mass-market connectivity in the region.

Thank you to the Australian High Commission in Kenya for the recognition, to the Australia East Africa Chamber of Commerce for championing the Australia–East Africa business community, and to the konnekt team and our customers, who are the real story.

If you are an Australian operator, technology partner or investor interested in East Africa, get in touch. Let's build it together.
