On 6 November, Kenya announced plans to grow conference tourism by 60% next year, supported by convention facilities at Bomas, Kisumu and the Coast. Their expected capacities are 10,000, 5,000 and 6,000 delegates respectively, while Jomo Kenyatta International Airport aims to expand passenger-handling capacity from approximately 8 million to 20 million. No combined construction budget or standard conference ticket price was disclosed.
The expansion creates opportunities for hotels, airlines, travel agencies, event organisers and hospitality suppliers. HPC can support tourism research, international business partnerships and hospitality-sector development.
