When xtonnes exhibited on Innovation Alley in 2021 they were at a very early stage.  They knew their product was right for the manufacturing sector, but needed a place to have early stage conversations to refine it – and Made Smarter Innovation Alley was a great place to do that!

Made Smarter Innovation Alley alumni company Authentise exhibited on the Alley in 2021.

Before the Coronavirus pandemic, the University of Eldoret fruitfully played host to the Agribusiness Trade Fair in Eldoret for 8 years in a row. In 2020 and 2021, the 9th edition of the Agribusiness Trade Fair was crippled by the pandemic which had a deep impact on mass gatherings across different sectors globally. Global Alliance Africa at Innovate UK KTN were delighted to attend this year’s event in person.

Dr. Megan Ronayne, Head of the Industrial Technology & Manufacturing Team at Innovate UK KTN, shares what her work involves.
