Kenya: Local Think-Tank Unveils 'Mentoria Fireside Chat' Series to Deepen Policy Debate

13 October 2025

Nairobi — Mentoria Economics Ltd has launched a new fireside chat series aimed at sharpening debate on international relations and Kenya's economic partnerships.

Managing Director Ken Gichinga said the inaugural Mentoria Fireside Chat will be held 17 October at Baraza Media Lab under the theme "Indo-Kenya Economic Imperatives." The session will explore the advantages of India-Kenya ties for the broader economy and examine the question: "India and Kenya--beacons of democracy. Can they lead economic growth in the Global South?"

"The first Mentoria Fireside Chat is a platform for thought leaders to share insights," Gichinga said, noting the event will feature a panel of social and economic experts to unpack the dynamics of Indo-Kenya economic and social partnerships.

"For enthusiasts of economic affairs, international relations and public policy, this is an opportunity to revisit the historical links that have shaped Kenya's development--and the support India has provided in infrastructure, health, education and related sectors," he added.

Mentoria Economics Ltd is a Kenya-registered policy analysis and advisory firm providing boutique intelligence and applied economics research to clients seeking deeper insight into regional economies. The firm says it delivers strategic, independent analysis to guide business decision-makers.
