The Women in Manufacturing programme, which was launched by KAM in 2017, seeks to improve market access for women industrialists, create a supportive environment, and bolster their competitiveness locally and globally.
The programme supports women-owned and led businesses as well as women working in manufacturing and young girls who want to pursue careers in STEM.
Last year, Musangi tendered her resignation from the Board of Sidian Bank, a subsidiary of Centum Investment Company PLC.
