Empowering Kenya Small & Medium Enterprises
SME Growth
Currently, there’s a lack of growth concerning small and medium-sized businesses in Kenya. SMEs are at a standstill although new businesses are opening every year. The majority of those businesses struggle and fail within the first five years. Kenyan SME Magazine is aware of this struggle that SMEs face and has, therefore, we have made it its primary goal to work towards the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises in Kenya. We do this by providing the necessary tools and beneficial knowledge of the latest trends in marketing, finance, accounting and several other areas. Kenyan SME Magazine Business magazine aims to help businesses by making it easy and accessible for them to have access and connect with top experts and business leaders in the field through magazine articles, social media posts, and business events.


Job Creation
The creation of job opportunities has a significant impact on the economy, which is why the second goal of Kenyan SME Magazine is to create more job opportunities that revolve around the small and medium-sized business in Kenya. We do this by encouraging SMEs to explore new options and connecting them with industry leaders through the Kenyan SME Magazine platform. Our platform will introduce them to further opportunities they never thought possible through collaborations and partnerships.
Innovation
Staying innovative is one of the keys to success for any business. Moreover, Kenyan SME has made its third goal to encourage innovation within the small and medium business enterprises. We do this by providing them with expert knowledge through our platform on the latest trends in technology to look out for. Being innovative is what differentiates a successful business from one that fails within the first five years. Kenyan SME Magazine will make sure businesses have the right knowledge and tools to leverage innovation by conducting business events with a strong focus on innovation and technology.
