The aim of this research was to develop an innovation assessment model to analyse the impact of broadband in spurring innovations in Kenya. This was achieved by studying the role of broadband diffusion, the impact of broadband collaborations, the influence of electronic research, and the role of online broadband product usability in assessing technological innovation.Background: Many countries in Africa invest in technology such as broadband infrastructure because they have realized that broadband encourages innovation leading to economic development and prosperity. Innovation is the result of a complex set of relationship between universities, business enterprises and government as the main components of a sound innovation system. Understanding the linkages, inter-dependencies, and interactions between these components is critical in assessing a country's innovative capacity. This study falls into the category of Collaborative Innovation Networks (COINs) studies that utilize Swarm intelligence (SI) employed in artificial intelligence
