iTowers Gaborone Structural Resolution 2016ADA Engineering Consultants
The iTowers project in Gaborone's New CBD consists of two high-rise towers (18 and 26 floors) serving residential and commercial purposes. The project required advanced structural analysis to address the challenges of cost-effective high-rise design and the phased construction of the two towers.
Successfully delivered as the tallest buildings in Botswana, the project utilized sophisticated 3D modeling to manage lateral stability and wind loading in a high-profile urban setting.

Botswana Innovation Hub (BIH) Digital Delivery 2020Arup
The Botswana Innovation Hub is an iconic, LEED-certified research and technology park in Gaborone. The structural design, led by Arup, involved a complex 'energy blanket' roof and sinuous geometry that required integrated 3D modeling and BIM workflows.
The project set a landmark for model-based delivery in Botswana, using digital visualization to bridge the distance between international design teams and local site execution.

Sector-level context showing where this capability is relevant in Mombasa.
Maritime & Port Logistics
The Port of Mombasa is one of the largest and busiest in East and Central Africa, with direct connectivity to over 80 ports worldwide, making maritime logistics the city's dominant economic sector.
Tourism & Hospitality
Mombasa is Kenya's premier coastal tourism destination, with beach resorts, marine parks and proximity to Tsavo and Shimba Hills driving a large hospitality workforce.
Manufacturing & Refining
Mombasa hosts a cement plant, oil refinery, steel mill and aluminium rolling mill, forming an industrial base linked to the port's import-export flows.
Telecommunications & BPO
Major intercontinental undersea telecom cables land near Mombasa, supporting a growing call-centre and business process outsourcing cluster in the region.
Training venue
Mombasa offers a range of hotels from international-standard beach resorts in Nyali and Diani to business-class properties on Mombasa Island, many of which have conference and training facilities. Delegates should confirm venue AV equipment and room layout in advance, as standards vary.
Getting there
Direct service is not clearly confirmed from Botswana to Mombasa in the search results; the route commonly appears as connecting itineraries into Mombasa Moi International Airport (MBA), with Kenya Airways among the named carriers and Gaborone–Mombasa journey times shown at about 3h 41m in one fare tool. If a connection is used, Nairobi is the most plausible hub from the evidence available, but the search results do not confirm a single specific scheduled routing.
Visa
Botswana passport holders are exempt from Kenya’s eTA requirement and may enter visa-free for up to 90 days, including travel for business or training. Kenya’s published exemption list names Botswana among the 90-day eTA-exempt nationalities.
Safety
Mombasa is generally welcoming to visitors, but delegates should use licensed taxis or rideshare apps rather than informal transport, especially after dark. Keep valuables discreet, stay aware in crowded market areas, and carry a copy of your passport rather than the original.
