The European Commission has launched the Africa-Europe Innovation Partnership initiative in Nairobi, Kenya. The initiative aims to connect innovation, technology-based incubators and accelerators in emerging markets. 

This partnership aligns with the vision of President-elect Ursula von der Leyen of the European Commission. She called for the European comprehensive strategy on Africa while emphasizing that a sustainable Europe investment plan will boost innovation, competitiveness and create jobs. Noting that innovation booms when people with different perspectives connect.
