Laikipia County government Deputy Governor Reuben Kamuri on Tuesday hosted officers from the Kenya Investment Authority (KenInvest) at the county offices in Nanyuki.
KenInvest is a government agency established in 2004 mandated to promote and facilitate both domestic and direct investments as well as undertaking policy advocacy in Kenya.
The Authority, through its partnership with United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) seeks to partner with counties across Kenya to create bankable investment opportunities profiles that target investors across Europe as well as those associated with UNIDO investment and Technology Promotion Offices (ITOPS) across the globe.
Through its partnership with the county government, KenInvest will train selected county staff on profiling both greenfield and brownfield projects within the county. In addition, it will also train staff on profiling businesses looking at expansion to market and link with investors through UNIDO.
The Deputy Governor expressed his interest in the program and emphasized the need for better exposure of the tourism and Hospitality industry which was hard hit by the effects of COVID-19 pandemic.
Present in the meeting was the CECM Trade and Tourism Mr Biwott Kisorio, the CEO LCDA Mr. James Mugambi and other officers from LCDA and the department of trade and tourism.
