11th Students Council members:

As is tradition, the Agribusiness Stakeholders were hosted to dinner by the University Council and Management on Friday 13th September 2024. This was an interactive session where our stakeholders had time to unwind after two days of engaging with the farmers and agripreneurs. As they congratulated the Organizing Committee led by Prof. Miriam Kinyua, the sponsors and exhibitors expressed their satisfaction with the trade fair organization and farmers mobilization. Next stop is the 2025 Agribusiness Trade Fair to which they committed to participate.

For the third year running, our financial partners, National Bank of Kenya were Platinum Sponsors during the 17th Agribusiness Trade Fair.

The sponsorship cheque was presented to the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Thomas Cheruiyot in the presence of the Agribusiness Trade Fair Vice-Chairperson, Dr. David Kios.

The National Bank team was led by Ms. Sylvia Mwai – Sector Head, Institutional Banking. She was accompanied by Mr. Nicholas Okello – Relationship Manager Institutions, Mr. David Mutai – Eldoret Branch Manager and Mr. Brian Kipkemboi – Sales Manager, Rift Region.
