GES 2015 was Kenya's moment of glory

Nairobi: Since it was launched in 2009, President Barack Obama has held the Global Entrepreneurship Summit (GES) in the US, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and Morocco. It is an organisation that has emerged as a major global platform; connecting emerging entrepreneurs with leaders of businesses, international organisations and governments.

It is a particularly important enterprise in emerging markets because of the enormous role that entrepreneurs play in the creation of jobs, economic development and social mobility.
