The Kenya Jobs and Economic Transformation (KJET) Project is a Government of Kenya initiative, supported by the World Bank, designed to unlock private investment, expand market access, and scale sustainable finance to create better jobs under the Bottom-up Economic Transformation Agenda.
Through KJET, Kenya is aligning three inputs investors care about: a stronger and more predictable business environment, targeted support to high-potential MSME clusters, and access to green and sustainable financing instruments for SMEs, that reduce risk and improve returns.
For investors, KJET offers a coordinated entry point into priority value chains where reforms, finance, and market access are being deployed together to accelerate growth and job creation.
KJET-Project is being implemented by two Ministries of Cooperatives and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MCMSME); and Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) under corresponding State Departments of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (SDMSME) and Investments Promotion (SDIP) respectively.
