This isn’t just a business story. It’s a reflection on Kenyaness; on how identity, culture, and pride can shape entrepreneurial ecosystems. Kenya, a country of over 40 tribes, stands as a mosaic of cultures. The conversation explores how this diversity, often overlooked in business discourse, becomes a strategic advantage when celebrated, not erased. What emerges is a nuanced, deeply local understanding of hospitality, conservation, and what it means to leave something better than you found it.
