The field of technology and innovation is full of unsuspected talent and creativity. Thérèse Kirongozi, the brilliant Congolese entrepreneur, perfectly embodies this spirit of innovation and determination. At the head of Women’s Technologies, a company specializing in robotics and technologies, she has distinguished herself through her ingenuity and her desire to contribute to the progress of her country.
Thérèse Kirongozi recently attracted media attention by asking the Congolese government to settle the invoices for her order of eight rolling robots intended to combat traffic jams in Kinshasa. Despite having already produced two robots with her own funds and their successful installation on strategic axes of the city, she has still not been paid. With the imminent end of the budget year, Thérèse Kirongozi is sounding the alarm and calling on the government to help honor its financial commitments.
This situation highlights the remarkable career of Thérèse Kirongozi, an engineer trained in industrial electronics, at the head of a company that continues to innovate and offer cutting-edge technological solutions. Her rolling robots are just one facet of her creative genius, since she has also developed other revolutionary inventions in fields as varied as education, electricity and water purification.
In the education sector, Thérèse Kirongozi and her team have developed an interactive robot aimed at making Chemistry lessons more attractive to students by providing fun and practical explanations. This robot, named Muyej in tribute to Governor Richard Muyej, illustrates Thérèse’s commitment to education and the promotion of science.
Furthermore, her water purification machine, named Izabo, is a major advance in the fight against waterborne diseases by producing a liquid substance capable of effectively purifying water. Not to mention the electrocution warning device, an essential preventive device in an environment where the risks associated with faulty electrical installations are omnipresent.
Despite these impressive innovations and their positive impact on Congolese society, Thérèse Kirongozi faces administrative and financial obstacles that hinder the development of her business. Her appeal to the government for the settlement of outstanding bills is legitimate, as it would allow Women’s Technologies to continue to actively contribute to the technological progress of the country and to benefit from the recognition it deserves.
In conclusion, Thérèse Kirongozi embodies the spirit of innovation and commitment to serving the community. Her story inspires and underlines the importance of supporting local entrepreneurs and innovative projects to move society towards a better futureIt is time for the government to recognize the value of Women’s Technologies and support its development for the well-being of all Congolese citizens.
