Why brands are showing up in Kenya
Africa's startup ecosystem raised over $2B+ in the last funding cycle across fintech, mobility, and infrastructure alone — and almost none of that capital, or the founders driving it, passes through a single room the way it does at ASF. One floor, the people actually building and funding the next generation of African companies. If your brand needs to be in front of that audience, a banner ad won't do it. Being in the room will.
Get in touch with our specialist team today to secure your partnership for ASF Kenya 2026.
