Kanangayi Symposium
Championing Changemakers
The Kanangayi Symposium is a social, economic & environmental impact platform that champions both entrepreneurial and corporate changemakers, by collaboratively fostering stronger communities and thriving organizations that drive forward the agenda of a more equitable world.
We foster an entrepreneurial ecosystem that drives social entrepreneurship, encourages collaborative partnerships, and promotes responsible innovation and meaningful impact.

DE&I Community Network, Switzerland
The positive impact of a diverse and inclusive workforce are self-evident.
Kanangayi further facilitates the competitive advantage through both our DE&I Community Network, as well as our Diverse Supplier Sourcing Initiative.
Beyond equity in the workplace as a key driver for a culture that leverages the full extent of diversity and belonging, the commitment to strong results is inclusive of both talent-for-hire and supplier-of-choice.
Our DE&I Community Networks cover a wide cross-sectoral range, that includes Academia, Startups, SME's and Large Corporations, and Entrepreneurs, Early Careers and Seasoned Professionals.
Our Supplier-of-Choice options offer just as much depth, with a strong presence across the Swiss Startup space.

Africa: SDG8, Decent Work & Economic Growth
In line with the Sustainable Development Goal number 8, our work in Africa addresses value-added production & manufacturing. We accompany African brands throughout their growth, as a means to facilitate the creation of self-sustaining industries.
Our paradigm-shifting approach is rooted in the economic ideals of the transformation of raw-materials into semi-finished and/or finished goods, as a key transformative prerequisite to enable a globally-competitive pricing based on know-how and excellence, as opposed to supply & demand dynamics (commoditized trade).
Our long-term aspirations are to rebrand the continent from a raw-material sourcing origin, into a globally-competitive (external) manufacturing hub.
#valueaddedtrade
Kanangayi's foremost deliverable: inclusive and sustainable economic growth,
full and productive employment and decent work for all.
decent work & economic growth enable the alleviation of poverty and hunger, improved health and well-being, the reduction of inequalities, and consequently influence resilient cities and communities, inevitably powering balanced outputs, responsible consumption and circular replenishment, while shaping the stability and consistency of institutions.
