The Association of Startups and SME Enablers of Kenya (Assek) has teamed up with the  Kenya National Innovation Agency (KeNIA) to create an enabling environment for innovation and entrepreneurship.

This comes at a time when KeNIA has begun developing a 10-year National Innovation Masterplan that will streamline guidelines on commercialisation and coordination of innovation hubs set to be released later in the year.
