Fintech is the most populated sector, with almost one-third of the country\u2019s tech startups active in that vertical. Almost 50 per cent of Kenyan tech startups have undergone some form of acceleration or incubation, though diversity is an issue as less than 20 per cent have a female co-founder.<\/span><\/p>\n These startups are also supported by a strong investment ecosystem. At least 242 Kenyan tech startups raised a combined US$1,281,918,200 between January 2015 and November 2022, a figure bettered only by Nigeria. Kenyan startups, however, are only the fourth most successful when it comes to successful exits, lagging behind South Africa, Egypt and Nigeria.<\/span><\/p>\n The publication includes:<\/span><\/p>\n *** Type “0” when asked to “name a fair price” to get this product for FREE ***<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n\n
