The regional bridge between
East Africa and global trade
SAIS Events is headquartered in Nairobi, Kenya, with an active network across six East African countries and international connections spanning China, UAE, India, Egypt, USA, Turkey, South Asia, and Europe.
We were born from a simple observation: East African professionals with real purchasing power and genuine sourcing mandates had no credible, structured route into the world's leading international trade programmes. The gap wasn't ambition. It wasn't budget. It was access.
Today, we are East Africa's dedicated trade delegation coordinator — sourcing, vetting, briefing, and delivering qualified buyers and decision-makers to international expos and hosted buyer programmes where real deals get done.
"We became that access. East African professionals no longer have to watch global trade happen from the sidelines — they are at the table, prepared, and ready to do business."
— Catherine KinyanjuiFounder & CEO
"A delegate list is easy. A delegate who closes a deal is the job. We don't stop at introductions — we make sure our people arrive ready to do business."
— Veronica GakioDirector
To be the most trusted trade delegation coordinator in East Africa — sourcing, preparing, and delivering qualified buyers to international expos, creating measurable commercial outcomes for every stakeholder involved.
A world where East African businesses are not spectators of global trade — but active, respected participants in it. One delegation at a time.
Delegates who travel to international expos without proper coordination miss most of the opportunities available. No pre-scheduled meetings. No matchmaking access. No visa support. No briefing. They attend — but they don't participate. Don't be that delegate.
