#KeExcellence

Kenyans - we are a people of ingenuity, tenacity, hard work, serious compassion, great humor, academic and sporting prowess. We kinda know it, but we often take for granted just how special we are.

It may be our natural tendency to be modest about our successes - we prefer to say we are just surviving even when we’ve just closed the deal of a decade or when we're finally recognized for being at the top of our game. It’s just who we are.

At the end of the day though, this nation of less than 50 million people packs a powerful punch on a globe of more than 7 billion. We know because across several fields, time and again we’ve taken the stage globally. In the arts, in the sciences, in tech and literary spaces we’ve excelled.

Join us on a journey celebrating Kenyans who have achieved Global Excellence - we applaud them, we embrace them, we thank them for inspiring not just us but the planet.

... and if we happen to be missing any, inbox us and we’ll be sure to get the full story.
