The University of Nairobi has taken another step towards strengthening industry partnerships following a courtesy call by a delegation from Britam Holdings to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Finance, Planning and Development, Prof. Josiah Aduda, on July 2, 2026.

The meeting gave the two institutions a chance to explore shared interests and discuss potential collaborations that would benefit both the University and the private sector.
