A structural engineer by training, Dr. Tony Monda returned to Kenya in 2001 and started consulting to make the heavy tower designs being rolled out across East Africa more efficient. As Tony’s clients increasingly wanted supervision from tower design and manufacture to installation and maintenance, his business TKM Maestro was transformed from a focus on structural design to end to end turnkey infrastructure service provision. Now TKM has come up with a revolutionary compact tower design, installed at nearly 300 sites in Nigeria, Kenya and Gabon, on the MTN, Airtel, Safaricom and Orange Networks, which promise to reduce the cost and installation time of a multi-tenant tower by 30%.
