The Kenya-Japan Business Forum 2025 has embarked on a campaign to attract Japanese investors in the country to boost industrialisation, investment opportunities, and economic growth.
The forum highlighted the nations' collaborative potential, showcasing Kenya's diverse investment opportunities and Japan's advanced expertise in various industries through the exchange of knowledge, insights, and innovative ideas to attract investors.
This year's forum brings together over 100 Kenyan and 30 Japanese private sector companies drawn from various sectors, including ICT, Health, Manufacturing, Shipping and Logistics, Financial Services, Energy, Construction, Insurance and Agriculture sectors, among others.
Speaking on Thursday during the forum inauguration in Nairobi, the Acting Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Investment, Trade, and Industry, Salim Mvurya, recognised the remarkable journey of cordial relations between these two countries since Japan has been Kenya's number one partner in development cooperation.
