Message from the organizers

Welcome to ICABUMPA-IN4IN conference 2015. The conference

whose focus will be on business acceleration beyond incubation is timely in a period where many countries in Africa are grappling with high levels of unemployment. Small and Medium Enterprises (SME’s) are recognized as key players in growth of emerging economies. Therefore, gatherings such as this that seek to educate and empower emerging and existing SME’s are important.

The conference international keynote speakers bring with them practical lessons in diverse areas of growth of enterprises. There will be several presentations from students, faculty, policy makers and industry players drawn from institutions across the continent. The conference will also have budding young and established entrepreneurs exhibiting their products and services. All this will be happening at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC) right in the heart of Nairobi city. Mount Kenya University, host to this event, thanks the sponsors and partners for their generous support.

Prof. Stanley Waudo, Ph.DVice-Chancellor, Mount Kenya University

“Conference will educate and empower emerging and existing entrepreneurs”

Dr. Simon N. Gicharu, CBSFounder and Chairman, Mount Kenya University

2015 World Entrepreneur of the YearHall of Fame Inductee

Modern universities are training their graduates to acquire a wide

variety of skills that are imperative to success. Entrepreneurship, the very art of business that is driven by personal desire, a dream and determination, is one of these skills. Most young people, including those in gainful employment, harbour dreams of entrepreneurial success as a pathway to financial success. Universities, as the well-springs of new knowledge, can help the youth nurture these dreams. They must not only serve as incubation centres for novel business ideas, but also as the bridge to market access. I am glad that this conference through its timely theme, “New Concepts for Business Acceleration for Africa” acknowledges that entrepreneurial success does not come in fast spurts. It is a slow, laborious process. To produce successful entrepreneurs, universities must embrace the philosophy of Plato: “Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.”

“Universities play a key role in propagating entrepreneurship”
