Community of Practice
Bringing together practitioners and ecosystem actors who support MSMEs, agribusinesses, and farmer organisations across Kenya.
Introduction
The KBV Community of Practice brings together practitioners and ecosystem actors working to strengthen enterprise support for MSMEs, agribusinesses, and farmer organisations across Kenya. Through shared learning, practical problem-solving, and collaboration, the Community of Practice helps improve how enterprise support services are delivered in real programmes.

Learning Hub
The KBV Community of Practice Learning Hub is being developed as a central platform for knowledge, tools, and continuous learning across the BDS ecosystem. This hub will support BDS providers, ESOs, and ecosystem actors to strengthen delivery quality, adopt standards-aligned practices, and improve enterprise-level outcomes.
Share Learning or Case Studies
The KBV Community of Practice also captures lessons from real programmes and initiatives so the ecosystem can continuously improve. If your organisation is implementing an enterprise support programme, pilot, or initiative, you can share insights and lessons that may benefit others.
