In recent years, Kenya has emerged as one of the fastest growing economies in the world, ranked 6th in Africa. Its strategic location in the horn of the continent makes it a key economic and commercial hub of East Africa especially for investors looking to launch into the African market.
Known as Africa’s Silicon Valley or “Silicon Savannah”, Kenya is embracing the ICT sector as a key enabler for future economic growth with the country having one of the best internet penetrations in the continent mainly due to Kenya being the birthplace of M-Pesa (mobile money banking).
Other economic drivers for Kenya are Manufacturing, Agriculture and Tourism.
