United States President Barack Obama will travel to Kenya later this year to attend a major entrepreneurship summit, US embassy officials said Monday.

The US Head of State will attend the Global Entrepreneurship Summit 2015, a meeting for entrepreneurs in Africa and the world to be hosted in Nairobi, in July this year.

This will be Obama’s fourth visit to Africa during his two-term presidency, but the first time he is coming to Kenya.
