Nyanza International Investment Conference: Unlocking a New Era of Economic Growth
The Nyanza International Investment Conference (NIIC), held from February 6–8, 2025, at Ciala Resort, Kisumu, marked a pivotal moment in the region’s journey toward economic transformation. Under the theme "Rising – Towards Economic Transformation for Socio-Economic Growth and Development," the event brought together influential leaders, including President William Ruto and Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, to chart a new path for investment, industrialization, and technological innovation. With ambitious goals like a 10% regional GDP growth by 2027 and over 50,000 jobs projected, the conference underscored Nyanza’s untapped potential while addressing challenges like infrastructure gaps and youth unemployment. This is a call to action for stakeholders to transform vision into reality and ensure Nyanza rises to its full potential.
