Pwani University

Pwani University is a public university in Kilifi on Kenya’s coast, serving a diverse regional student body on a 239‑hectare campus. Its coastal setting and proximity to the Mombasa–Malindi corridor give corporate partners straightforward access to marine and coastal environments and port‑linked supply chains. Engagement is coordinated through a dedicated research, innovation and extension office that brokers collaborations and connects firms to workforce pipelines through the on‑campus TVET college. Research activity is supported by competitive funding from Kenyan national sources and international sponsors, including European cooperation programs. University policies for patenting, licensing and commercialization guide technology transfer and community piloting.
