[Kentice Tikolo]

Listers,


The Ministry of Industry, Trade & Cooperatives (MoITC), in partnership
with the World Bank Group, launched the Kenya Industry and Entrepreneurship
Project (KIEP), on 4th June 2019.



The USD 50 million project aims to increase innovation and productivity in
select private sector firms in Kenya over the next six years (2019-2024).
KIEP highlights the importance of technology and innovation to the
development of industries and recognizes the centrality of firm-level
support to Kenya’s industrialization.



KIEP will be implemented through the following components:



Component 1: Strengthening the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem



Component 2: SME linkages and upgrading



The target beneficiaries are:

   - Accelerators/Incubators
   - Technology Bootcamp Providers
   - Startups
   - SMEs
   - Students
   - Corporates



The project aims to have a countrywide presence.



Kindly share (inbox) ideas on how best to create interest and demand among
the beneficiaries, that will encourage them to apply.



I have attached a fact sheet for more information, which can also be found
on www.kiep.go.ke.





Best regards,



Kentice Tikolo, MScPR, FPRSK
