Google hosted a workshop in Nairobi to train Kenyan Gen-Z creators and students on its Gemini AI tools, according to Africa Business Communities. The session, reported under the name "Tutunge na Gemini," brought together creators, media representatives and students, KBC Digital reports.
Coverage of the event appeared across several Kenyan and regional tech outlets, including Techweez, tech-ish.com and Mpasho, alongside Africa Business Communities. The reports describe the workshop as focused on the creative economy, with Nairobi as the host city. The training took place in September 2026, based on the publication date of the source reports.
The workshop is the latest sign of Google's push to put Gemini, its AI toolset, in front of younger users in African markets. According to the reporting, the Nairobi session was aimed at people working or studying in creative fields, a group the outlets link to Kenya's creative economy. The reports do not specify how many people attended, which tools were demonstrated, or whether Google plans to repeat the training elsewhere.
What to watch next: whether Google extends similar Gemini training to other African markets, and whether follow-up sessions are announced for Kenyan creators and students.
