Kenya’s next phase of growth will increasingly depend on reliable digital connectivity. Roads, ports, railways and industrial investments remain essential to development. In today’s economy, however, connectivity deserves to be discussed in the same breath.
It enables people, businesses and institutions to transact, learn, access services, innovate and compete. Connectivity has become the invisible infrastructure behind modern life. According to the Communications Authority (CA) of Kenya’s latest Audience Measurement and Industry Trends Report, the country has an average of 18.8 million internet users.
