YEPI To Host The 7th Annual Entrepreneurship Summit 2023
Each year, Youth Empowerment Program Initiative, hosts the YEPI Entrepreneurship Summit bringing together 200 social entrepreneurs, innovators, investors, corporate, government leaders, business development service providers and change makers who are committed to Harnessing Entrepreneurship and Innovation in the Coast Region.
The Summit will enable participants to Converge, Network and Learn unique skills and best practices in today’s business environment, and identify and leverage opportunities for business from both private and public sector players. At the same time, the Summit is a perfect opportunity for people from all over Kenya and beyond to see and experience not only a newly revitalised and transforming Mombasa—which is thanks to booming infrastructure and a wave of development as a result of devolution factors and other stimulus measures—but also the wide-ranging unique, learning and networking opportunities that will showcase innovation, social impact and collaboration among youth in the Kenya’s only port city.
On the 4th of February 2023, YEPI will host its Seventh Annual Entrepreneurship Summit from 8.00am – 5.00pm at CityBlue Hotel & Suits in Mombasa Kenya.
The theme for 2023 YEPI Entrepreneurship Summit “Sustainable Entrepreneurship – Driver for Growth” demonstrates our commitment to help youth and women harness the power of entrepreneurship as a tool for sustainable and inclusive development.
“The Summit is part of our efforts to nurture and support not just an entrepreneurial ecosystem among youth in Mombasa, but also to provide real-world skills, best business practices, mentorship and connections to help these highly motivated youths succeed,” says YEPI Founder / Executive Director, Amani Katana.

During the summit, selected youth will compete against their peers and present their businesses to a panel of esteemed judges followed by 5 minutes for question and answer session. Judges will positively critique ideas, provide suggestions and decide the winner. The winner will win in-kind support from YEPI and Partners. Delegates may register here to participate in the summit by January 21, 2023.
We invite partners from the private sector, public sector and development agencies to collaborate on this innovative framework focused on entrepreneurship and impact to drive sustainable development in Kenya.
