Kenyan business leaders and entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to dine with American megachurch pastor Bishop T.D. Jakes and Zimbabwe's richest man Strive Masiyiwa when they visit the country next month.
The duo will be in Kenya for the inaugural Africa Leadership Summit, which will be held at the Moi International Sports Center, Kasarani, on September 5-6.
According to the summit's organizers, SOAR Africa, the fees for attending the event vary, with the VVIP slot costing Ksh75,000. This package includes an exclusive dinner and fireside chat with Bishop Jakes and Masiyiwa on the evening of September 5.
Along with VIP delegates, who will pay Ksh50,000, the VVIPs will also sit in the tent with the headline speakers on September 6.
Delegates with neither VVIP or VIP status will pay Ksh25,000.
Bishop Jakes and Masiyiwa will be joined by other keynote speakers, including Head of Facebook Africa Nunu Ntshingilia and Joshua Oigara, the chief executive of Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB).
SOAR Africa director Joy Wachira said, “SOAR Africa creates a space where we champion the right leadership ingredients, share learning, transfer knowledge and mentorship, and this is because we believe that only by pulling together will we ensure no one is left behind.”
