Abstract/Description

The AgriTech4Kenya Innovation Challenge Bootcamp, held from November 25 to 29 2024 at the Brackenhurst Conference and Retreat Centre in Limuru, brought together 25 innovative early-stage projects representing diverse regions and priorities within the Agri-Tech sector. Over the course of four days, these innovators engaged with partners, explored Kenya’s Agri-Tech ecosystem, and refined their solutions through workshops, expert masterclasses, farm visit, and one-on-one mentoring sessions.

The AgriTech4Kenya Innovation Challenge is powered by CGIAR Accelerate for Impact Platform, the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, and co-organized with the CGIAR Excellence in Agronomy Initiative and CGIAR Initiative on Nature-Positive Solutions and funded by the Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale. The initiative is implemented in partnership with Micro Enterprise Support Programme Trust (MESPT), Kenya National Innovation Agency (KeNIA), AGRA, Agriculture Sector Network (ASNET), Daystar University, iTATU Mercy Corps, DOB Equity, Climate Resilient Africa Fund, Sustainable Agriculture Foundation (SAF)
