GEN in Kenya

GEN began operating in Kenya in 2008 when it inaugurated the annual Global Entrepreneurship Week campaign to celebrate the successes and impact of Kenya's entrepreneurs, break down cultural barriers, and expand the number of people who consider becoming an entrepreneur. Through participation in virtual platforms and live events, including the Global Entrepreneurship Congress (GEC) and GEC+ series, the annual Startup Nations Summit, and annual meetings of its global communities, GEN connects Kenya's entrepreneurs and ecosystem leaders across the globe.

GLOBAL SPOTLIGHT

Entrepreneurs Thrive Here: Global Entrepreneurship Week 2026

Millions of people around the world have the ideas, talent, and ambition to build something better for themselves and their communities — but have never seen entrepreneurship as a path available to them. Global Entrepreneurship Week, taking place November 16-22, 2026, changes that. This campaign meets people where they are and connects them to the networks, tools, and support to take that first step — showing what’s possible in their own communities.
