Sankalp Impact Investors Forum

Showcasing Somalia as a place of opportunity

Every year in Nairobi there is a global impact investor forum for ecosystem stakeholders to come together, convene, and push each other forward. The Somali RIL research into the Somali innovation ecosystem led the organizers of Sankalp to ask the RIL to showcase the many opportunities Somalia had, as a “Frontier Economy,” despite the challenges.

The RIL brought together its local partnership with SomReP and BRCiS consortiums to co-fund the event, and to facilitate a panel discussion. The panel was moderated by Nasra Ismail (former Director of the Somali NGO Consortium), and an insightful conversation was had about partnerships, investment, and innovation in Somalia.
