Kenya and Italy celebrate in Nairobi the fourth generation future leaders

NAIROBI (ITALPRESS/MNA) – The graduation ceremony of the fourth group of entrepreneurs who participated in the E4Impact Kenya acceleration program was held today. This edition of the program, launched in 2018 by the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in collaboration with the E4Impact Foundation, the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS), saw the participation of more than 30 Kenyan entrepreneurs, who were able to improve their activity thanks to the training initiatives offered.
The ceremony, chaired by the Italian Ambassador to Kenya, Roberto Natali, by the Deputy Minister for Small and Medium Enterprises, the Honourable Susan Mang’eni, which was also attended by the head of AICS Nairobi Giovanni Grandi and the CEO of the E4Impact Foundation Mario Molteni, was followed by a series of round tables. These discussion sessions, which involved representatives of the Italian and Kenyan private sector and international organisations, highlighted the importance of creating new markets and strengthening trade relations between the two countries.
Also thanks to AICS funding, E4Impact’s work continues to represent a significant contribution to sustainable development in Kenya, offering new opportunities for future generations of entrepreneurs.
“Collaboration with Kenya to strengthen the creation of companies and jobs is one of the pillars of the partnership between Italy and Kenya”, Ambassador Natali stressed, adding that “it is through entrepreneurship and innovation that we can contribute to reduce poverty and secure long-term prosperity, also in view of the young average age of the population that will soon face the labour market”.
