Our Story

Bridging the Gap Between Companies and Shareholders

Founded in 2023, Investor Relations Services Kenya emerged from a simple observation: shareholder participation in AGMs was declining due to logistical challenges, outdated processes, and lack of accessible technology.

We set out to revolutionize this space by creating a platform that combines the simplicity of USSD technology with the power of modern web applications. Today, we serve hundreds of companies and thousands of shareholders, making AGM participation accessible to anyone with a mobile phone.
