Dr. Nixon Kitimoi, Chief Investment Officer at 1Stock, recently participated in the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Regional Programme Economy - Africa, held at Villa la Collina, Cadenabbia, Como, Italy. The event gathered visionary leaders and experts from across Africa and the European Union to discuss the transformative theme of the "Economic Benefits of Decarbonization."
