The visit served as a platform to discuss critical matters concerning Kenya's economic transformation, with a particular emphasis on leveraging innovation hubs to bolster the nation's digital economy.

The center's core objectives center around nurturing innovation and its successful translation into commercially viable ventures.
The KIPPRA visit underscores the growing recognition of Kabarak University's Innovation and Business Incubation Center as a key player in Kenya's innovation ecosystem.
