Ms Angela Ndambuki, a lawyer and former chief executive of the
Performers Rights Society of Kenya (PRISK), has been appointed chief
executive of the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KNCCI)
for a period of three years.
Ms Ndambuki takes over
the leadership mantle at a time when investors are keenly following
developments in politics to see how Kenya, one of Africa’s leading
investment destinations, goes through a prolonged electoral process.
“My role will focus on enhancing our image and growing the international investor portfolio,” said Ms Ndambuki.
“With
the same energy, we shall focus on key advocacy issues affecting the
business community to ensure a favourable climate for Kenyan companies
and facilitate ease of doing business.”
Her appointment
comes with new changes in management which will see Mr George Kiondo —
who has been acting as chief executive since January — take over as the
lobby’s chief operating officer.
Ms Ndambuki is an
expert in public-private partnerships and has experience in relationship
building with development partners, trade and investment support
institutions as well as government institutions.
She has significant experience at board governance having served as a member on various boards and committees.
She
holds a Master of Laws Degree (LLM) in Intellectual Property Law from
the University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom, and a Bachelor of Laws
Degree (LLB) from the University of Nairobi.
