Ms Ingabire graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology\u2019s School of Engineering & Sloan School of Management, in the System Design and Management program and holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering and Information Technology from the University of Rwanda.<\/p>\n

She was named by Apolitical among the Top 20 of the World\u2019s 100 most influential people in digital government in 2019. In addition, she served as Head of the ICT Business Development Department at the Rwanda Development Board where she led the implementation of National ICT programs notably eGovernment and Cyber Security; as well as the coordinator of the Kigali Innovation City Project, a flagship program of the Government designed to nurture and strengthen a Pan-African Innovation eco-system in Rwanda.<\/p>\n
