BBC journalistThe Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) is taking place this weekend in Nairobi.
On Saturday, the event hosted US President Obama's morning speech on innovation, followed by talks and workshops for entrepreneurs later in the day.
Our rambling band of video journalists visited the summit, which was being held throughout the weekend at the United Nations in Nairobi. We arrived a few hours after President Obama left for other stops around the city.
But before we were allowed to slip into the actual conference to hear the talks that followed the president's visit, we were ushered into an area separated from the actual event by a metal gate and armed personnel.
"Media zones" are quite common at conferences. They are areas specifically designated for journalists who are covering the events. And this time around, we were told to wait there for an hour while our conference guide was made available.
These areas often feel similar to those set up for school dances or family reunions – impermanent spaces with plastic tables and table clothes.
Media zones are typically my favourite spots at conferences. They are quirky places that give journalists a glimpse at the backend of the conference.
This time around, we sat in black chairs on a Beverly Hills-style balcony that looked out onto an elaborate in-ground pool, next to which a woman slept face down, unmoving.
I waited ten minutes. But nothing. She was completely motionless.
"I wonder if I should call..."
Just then, a woman appeared and said: "A press conference is taking place in room A."
It was Miss America. The Miss America.
"Miss America?"
She took the stage and spoke rapidly and broadly about her love of technology and innovation.
And that was it.
We were then met by our guide, who walked us into the actual event, where entrepreneurs zoomed in and out of rooms snacking on hors d'oeuvres.
Another quirky media zone experience in the books.

End of youtube videoUS President Obama has been outspoken on gay rights during his trip to Kenya.
But the US and Kenyan presidents differed sharply in their positions on the topic at a news conference on Saturday.
Mr Kenyatta described the question of gay rights as "really a non-issue" in Kenya, saying that the country needed to concentrate on other areas "that are day-to-day living for our people".
Our team hit the streets of Nairobi just one day earlier to ask Kenyans what they thought of Obama's push on gay rights.

"Everybody deserves fair treatment. Equal treatment, in the eyes of the law and the state. That includes gays, lesbians and transgender persons. I am not a fan of discrimination or bullying of anyone on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation or gender."

09:54 BST 25 July 2015Mr Obama says Kenya has made "incredible progress" since his last visit, and said people should not be "blinded" by prejudice.
"When I was here in Nairobi ten years ago, it looked different from what it looks today. There's a lot of progress. I'm proud of all you," he said.
"We expect great things out of you," Mr Obama added, before stepping down from the stage.
