Leandry is a Cameroonian urban planner with a major focus on promoting smart cities that build on the local context for people-centered smart cities. Amateur photographer and graphic designer in his spare time, he is passionate about innovative approaches to make cities inclusive and sustainable living spaces. It is in this sense that he initiated Africa Innovation Network in order to co-construct models of thought, paradigm and ideologies, and know-how for African cities that place the human being at the center.
