Kenya just made its first appearance on this big international competitiveness ranking and somehow landed at number 56 out of 69 countries while grabbing the top spot in Africa. The IMD World Competitiveness survey puts them ahead of places like South Africa and Nigeria, which is pretty wild considering Kenya's dealing with protests, flooding, political drama with their deputy president getting impeached, and mounting debt problems.
The country scored well on stuff like trade and government reforms, but still struggles with education, tech infrastructure, and science development. Switzerland, Singapore, and Hong Kong took the top three spots globally, and the whole ranking looks at things like economic performance and business efficiency using both hard data and surveys from executives.
