Business Areas
Kenya Data Networks is a private data communications carrier in Kenya. As of 2006 it is the country's largest private data carrier and operates on a similar scale as the state-run Telkom Kenya. KDN started business when it was licensed as a Public Data Network Operator by the Communications Commission of Kenya (CCK) in 2003. The company's headquarters are located on Mombasa Road, Nairobi.
The CCK has also licensed KDN as a local loop operator, and to provide fixed line services. KDN also owns an International Gateway License, under which it sells internet connectivity to local ISPs.
KDN was previously co-owned by the Sameer Investment Group - which owns a number of Kenyan and other African companies - and private shareholder Kai Wulff. On 1 March 2008, however, South African ICT company Altech acquired a 51% stake in KDN, and Kai Wulff was appointed as CEO. KDN's motto is "Keep the data flowing".

Famous quotes containing the words business and/or areas:
“The business of the law is to make sense of the confusion of what we call human life—to reduce it to order but at the same time to give it possibility, scope, even dignity.”
—Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)
“Adults understandably assume that the level of verbal proficiency a five-year-old displays represents his level of proficiency in all areas of functioning—if he talks like an adult, he must think and feel like one. However, five-year-olds,... belie the promise of adult-like behavior with their child-like, impulsive actions.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
