About · The founder

Ryan Lagat.

Founder & Group CEO — VirrTech Group

Technology entrepreneur building a group of ventures around one belief: an idea is only the beginning — the real work is turning it into something people can actually use.

Make possibility real.

The founding instruction — not a slogan

§ 01

The founder

The start. Ryan's journey began with a practical interest in how digital products are built — websites, software, the systems that connect businesses with their customers. He treated technology not as a skill to collect but as a tool for solving real problems. That mindset became the foundation for VirrTech.

The approach. Identify a problem. Understand the people experiencing it. Build technology that makes the solution practical. Today that work spans software development, digital solutions, agriculture, innovation and community-focused initiatives.

Still building while learning. Ryan's foundation is hands-on — real projects in modern web technologies, not theory. His work has moved well beyond code: leading VirrTech Group across product development, business strategy, branding, client relationships and leadership. Every project becomes an opportunity to learn something new.

VirrTech Group

The parent organization and long-term vision behind the ecosystem — not a single product, but technology-driven ventures under one vision. Four areas operate today:

Division 01
VirrTech Solutions

The client-facing technology and digital solutions division. It works with businesses, organizations and entrepreneurs to turn ideas and requirements into practical digital products — websites, e-commerce platforms, custom web applications, business systems, dashboards, integrations, automation, MVP development and technology consulting.

Division 02
VirrTech Tech Hub

The technology and innovation side of the ecosystem — focused on learning, experimentation and development, and on creating opportunities for people to engage with technology hands-on.

Division 03
VirrTech Agritech

The agricultural technology division — technology applied to challenges across agriculture, building connected digital agricultural systems. Its flagship venture is SokoShamba, the marketplace connecting farmers, buyers, logistics providers and the wider agricultural value chain.

Division 04
VirrTech Foundation

The impact-oriented side of the ecosystem — using technology, innovation and partnerships to contribute to communities and create opportunities beyond commercial projects.

Why VirrTech Solutions exists

Technology is the tool.
The outcome is what matters.

Many businesses have ideas for improving how they operate — without the technical resources, knowledge or team to turn those ideas into working digital products. VirrTech Solutions was created to bridge that gap.

The goal is not simply to build another website or application. It is to understand the business behind the technology — treating every website, online store, custom platform, internal system, automated workflow or MVP as a problem-solving exercise.

Small and senior by design: the people in the call are the people writing the code. Projects are executed with modern stacks and real testing, then maintained long after launch.

The bigger vision. VirrTech Group is being built for the long term — an ecosystem where technology solves meaningful problems, creates businesses and opens opportunities. Solutions is the execution layer of that vision: it builds the experience, relationships and capabilities that larger ventures — and the community — grow from.

Beliefs

How we work

i

Ownership

Software should never imprison a business in its vendor. You own the code, domain and accounts.

ii

Honesty

Fixed quotes, written scopes, plain prices in KES. We say no when no is right.

iii

Craft

Modern stack, clean code, real testing. We're a maintenance company that happens to build — quality compounds.

iv

Local

M-PESA-native, Kenya-fluent, Nairobi hours. World-class engineering priced for our market.
