Official partners include UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organization), EAC (East Affrican Community), and the Ministry of Industrialization and Enterprise Development of Kenya.

Day One will focus on “Innovation trends in the agro-food chains;” Day Two will focus on “Sustainable packaging: challenges and solutions; “and Day Three will focus on “Normative and educational prerequisites for a sustainable development in agro-food chains.”
