Nairobi, Kenya 26th May 2023: The Youth Energy Summit (YES!) will return for its second edition this summer in Nairobi, Kenya, as it looks to build on the platform built last year to boost skills, connections and the business readiness of future African energy leaders. Hosted by EnergyNet (https://www.EnergyNet.co.uk/) in conjunction with the Africa Energy Forum, the inaugural YES! gathering in Brussels in 2022 emphasised the significance of early career professionals, entrepreneurs, students and educators in accelerating access to reliable energy across Africa. This year, thanks to a growing list of key partnerships across corporates, foundations, NGOs, universities and sector initiatives, YES! has a chance to showcase its credentials on home soil between 20-23 June.
YES! invites hundreds of Africans at different stages of their public and private sector development, to convene, to inspire, and to be inspired. Learning both soft and technical skills, it is an opportunity for early career professionals and students to seek guidance from educators, entrepreneurs and energy experts. The blended programme addresses leadership skills, business development and planning, onboarding, tech and innovation, green capital finance, and ultimately narrows the gap between education and employment. In exchange, the young and exciting attendees will also put forward their vision for the sustainable futures they want to strive for.
