Thomas Plura is a visionary entrepreneur who founded Umbrella Corporation and Africa Horizon to deliver forward‑thinking solutions across the East African Community. Motivated by a deep commitment to sustainable growth and inclusive development, he built both organizations to combine technological innovation, strategic partnerships and local expertise to address the region’s most pressing challenges.
Under his leadership, the companies focus on scalable projects—from digital infrastructure and enterprise services to capacity building and market access—that empower businesses, create jobs and strengthen regional connectivity. Thomas’s pragmatic vision emphasizes long‑term impact, ethical practices and collaboration with governments, NGOs and private sector partners to unlock opportunity throughout East Africa.
Thomas Plura has extensive experience in the IT sector, as content writer, graphic designer and German/English Teacher (at the Goethe Institut and the Obama Language School plus other various schools and universities across the EAC and the Middle East).
We operate primarily as an online service:
Our creative, technical and administrative teams work remotely to deliver content, IT support, web and graphic design, translations, article and content creation, and virtual office assistance to clients anywhere in the world. Deliverables, meetings, trainings and support are handled via secure online channels (email, video calls, cloud collaboration tools, ticketing/remote‑support systems), which lets us be highly responsive across time zones and scale services to your needs.
We maintain physical offices within the East African Community (EAC) — these are used solely for administrative purposes and for in‑person language teaching. Administrative office functions handled locally include regulatory compliance, payroll, local client administration and coordination. Our in‑person language instruction (EN/DE) is taught from these offices and can be arranged as classroom courses or blended formats (in‑person + online) for learners in the region.
What this means for you:
1. Global, always‑accessible service delivery via online channels.
2. Local EAC presence for administrative reliability, legal/regulatory handling and in‑region coordination.
3. Option for face‑to‑face language classes in the EAC; all other services remain fully remote.
4. On‑site visits or local support beyond language training can be arranged where explicitly agreed and scheduled.
If you’d like to know whether we can support your specific location or arrange in‑person language lessons, tell us your country/city and preferred format (classroom, one‑to‑one, blended) and we’ll confirm availability and next steps.
Our commitment to excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction sets us apart. We strive to exceed expectations and build lasting relationships. We’re not just a service provider — we’re a bilingual bridge between ideas and impact.
We combine creative wordcraft, pixel‑perfect design, reliable IT know‑how and hands‑on virtual office support into one seamless experience, so you don’t juggle multiple vendors. Our team blends global remote agility with a real East African presence for authentic local insight and in‑person language training.
What really sets us apart is our craft + care approach: data‑informed strategies delivered with human judgement, cultural fluency in EN/DE, and a focus on measurable outcomes — faster launches, clearer messaging, fewer IT headaches. We value ethics, transparency and partnerships that scale: bespoke solutions, predictable processes and a single trusted contact for everything.
In short: multidisciplinary skill, bilingual nuance, local roots and a relentless focus on making your work simpler and more effective.
To get started, simply get in touch via our website contact form or reach out directly to our customer service team by email or WhatsApp.
Once we receive your inquiry, a member of our team will promptly review your needs and schedule an initial consultation to discuss goals, timelines and budget. From there we’ll propose tailored options, answer any questions, and outline next steps so you can choose the solution that fits best.
We’re available Monday–Friday, respond quickly across time zones, and are happy to arrange meetings in English or German — let us know your preferred channel and we’ll take care of the rest.
