Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, is one of Africa’s leading business, diplomatic and innovation hubs. Known as the “Green City in the Sun,” Nairobi combines modern infrastructure with natural landscapes and a vibrant entrepreneurial culture.
It hosts multinational companies, development institutions, trade bodies and a dynamic agribusiness ecosystem — making it a fitting location for East Africa’s premier coffee marketplace.
Delegates can expect:
Strong international air connectivity
Established conference infrastructure
A wide range of accommodation options
Reliable digital payment systems
International arrivals land at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), East Africa’s primary aviation gateway.
Typical travel time from JKIA to the Grand Expo venue ranges between 30–60 minutes, depending on traffic.
Visitors are advised to check official government sources for visa requirements prior to travel.
Located in the Westlands area of Nairobi, the Visa Oshwal Community Centre is a well-established event and conference venue known for hosting exhibitions, cultural gatherings and large-scale business events.
The venue’s location in Westlands places delegates within proximity of hotels, restaurants, business centres and shopping facilities.
