Bolt Latitude59 Nairobi sponsorship boosts startup visibility, connecting Kenyan founders to investors, global networks, and cross-border opportunities.
Bolt is proud to announce its sponsorship of Latitude59 Nairobi, taking place from December 3–5, marking the tech festival’s second edition in Kenya. The event will convene some of the continent’s most promising founders, investors, and digital economy leaders to explore how African innovation can scale globally.
As part of its commitment to accelerating entrepreneurship across the region, Bolt will play a central role at this year’s gathering. Weyinmi Aghadiuno, Bolt’s Head of Regulatory and Policy, Africa, will join a high-level panel discussion to discuss policy frameworks needed to support local innovators, and opportunities for African startups to build solutions that scale across borders.
In a significant boost to local entrepreneurship, the Top 10 finalists of the Kenya Bolt Accelerator program will receive exclusive access to Latitude59’s network of investors and partners. These founders will pitch directly to global venture capitalists, ecosystem enablers, and corporate innovation leaders, opening doors to valuable visibility, mentorship, and potential investment.
Weyinmi Aghadiuno, Bolt’s Head of Regulatory and Policy, Africa, said: “We believe the future of mobility, commerce, and digital services in Africa will be driven by bold ideas from local founders. Through the Kenya Bolt Accelerator and our support for Latitude59 Nairobi, we’re creating pathways for entrepreneurs to connect with global networks and scale solutions that transform communities.”
The finalists will also be introduced to opportunities within Estonia’s world-renowned e-Residency programme, which offers startup founders an efficient gateway to access the EU market, establish borderless digital companies, and plug into one of the world’s most advanced digital business environments.
