Sector Opportunities in Kenya are dominating the conversation following the Chamber's Roundtable Discussion with Ambassador
Elkanah Odembo. Excellent opportunities exist in energy exploration, generation, transmission, equipment supply and utility

plans in pursuit of expedited success for our projects in Kenya. Representatives from the USKCC worked with us prior
to our visit to Kenya, they understood our services and goals, and subsequently arranged strategic meetings with Kenyan businesses and senior government officials, including cabinet members....
The efforts and diligence of the USKCC are a critical factor for achieving our goals in Kenya and I
strongly recommend them to anyone interested in doing business in Kenya and the region." Ed Huffine, VP of International Development, Bode Technology
