I chose to study in Rwanda because of the security and the warm welcome for foreigners. The sense of safety and the hospitality I've experienced here have made my educational journey truly fulfilling. Here, it's like home; you don't have a problem if you're not a citizen. And with INES-Ruhengeri, an institute of applied sciences, I am sure to become a competent graduate."

My entrepreneurial journey took flight when I won the Business Idea Pitch Competition organized by INES-Ruhengeri in August 2023. My company, INGABO SMART SECURITY, addresses the problem of robbery. I wanted to solve the problem of theft and make security affordable for everyone who wants to protect their property. I was able to realize my dream because of INES-Ruhengeri. INES has a place for big dreamers, and you can achieve anything you want through the various opportunities they offer.
