The unbanked should not be viewed as a risk to be kept at arm's length. They represent an immense opportunity - a vibrant market waiting to be served, empowered and integrated into the formal economy.
As Kenya positions itself as a premier destination for continental and global conferences, exhibitions and high-level diplomatic engagements, the ongoing transformation of Bomas of Kenya into the Bomas International Convention Complex (BICC) marks a bold step towards creating a world-class meetings and events destination while preserving one of the country's most iconic cultural and historical landmarks.
With roofing and finishing works currently underway, the project is set to redefine Nairobi's conference infrastructure and establish the region's largest hub for Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE).
The redevelopment will deliver a modern convention complex supported by an 11,000-seat auditorium, multiple breakout meeting facilities, a high-security presidential pavilion capable of hosting numerous heads of state and integrated hospitality, retail and recreational amenities.
During its implementation phase, the project is already creating employment opportunities for hundreds of workers and stimulating economic activity across the construction, hospitality and service sectors.
The State Department for Internal Security and National Administration continues to support the successful implementation of the project through inter-agency coordination, strategic stakeholder engagement and the development of security and protocol frameworks required for a facility envisioned to host some of the world's most significant gatherings.
