Pillar: Policy

Enactment of a Globally Competitive StartUp Bill

Brief

Goal
The Kenya Startup Bill 2022 was proposed to provide a framework to create a more favorable environment for innovation. It intends to encourage growth and sustainable technological development and new employment through entrepreneurship. The proposal is currently before Parliament for consideration. This masterplan proposes to encourage more stakeholder engagement, passing and enactment of a globally competitive startup bill before the end of the fiscal year 2023/2024. This will require close collaboration with the parliamentary committees to ensure that this gets on to the parliamentary docket for discussion and adoption. In recognition of the time lapse since the drafting of the bill, it is recommended that a revision that includes additional public participation is considered and adopted.
