Sometimes, growth begins with having someone who has walked the road before you.
The Kisumu Biashara Pawa Dialogue 2 brought entrepreneurs and ecosystem actors together around the power of mentoring in entrepreneurship ā exploring how guidance, shared experiences and meaningful relationships can help entrepreneurs navigate challenges and grow with greater confidence.
Mentorship creates a space to ask questions, learn from both successes and setbacks, gain new perspectives and build connections that can influence the next stage of an entrepreneurial journey.
At Kaizen Consultancy, we are proud to contribute to Biashara Pawa through communications, PR, strategic storytelling and visibility, helping ensure that the conversations and experiences emerging from these engagements continue to be heard beyond the events themselves.
Our Founder, Charity Mbithe, also took on the MC role for the Kisumu dialogue, bringing together the different voices in the room and keeping the conversations moving as entrepreneurs and ecosystem actors shared, connected and learned from one another.
The Biashara Pawa initiative, under the IYBA-SEED programme, brings together IYBA-SEED Kenya, SNV, Responsible Business Consulting, Kaizen Consultancy, Wisehub, EldOHUB and Nakuru Box across Nakuru, Uasin Gishu and Kisumu, working together to support women's participation in sectors where they remain underrepresented through dialogue, mentorship, role models, storytelling and visibility.
Hereās a glimpse into the Kisumu conversation and the people making mentorship part of the journey towards more inclusive entrepreneurship.
