Kenya and Kuwait are
exploring opportunities to strengthen cooperation in digital transformation,
technology, and skills development as part of efforts to deepen bilateral
relations between the two countries.
Kenya’s Cabinet Secretary
for Information, Communications and the Digital Economy, H.E. William Kabogo
Gitau, held discussions with the Ambassador of the State of Kuwait to Kenya,
Amb. Anas Talib Ali Marafi, during a courtesy meeting focused on strengthening
collaboration between the two nations.
The discussions centred on
Kenya’s digital transformation agenda, particularly ongoing efforts to
accelerate the digitalisation of government services and improve access to
technology-driven solutions.
Kabogo welcomed Kuwait’s
continued support for Kenya and highlighted the importance of expanding
cooperation in areas such as technology, capacity building, and skills
development.
The engagement forms part of
Kenya’s broader efforts to build strategic international partnerships that
support innovation, digital public services, and the growth of the country’s
digital economy.
Both sides expressed
readiness to explore further areas of collaboration that can contribute to
shared development goals and strengthen the longstanding relationship between
Kenya and Kuwait.
