    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I support this amendment as it obligates the agency to ensure that all start-ups receive training to register their intellectual property. This will help prevent them from being taken advantage of by the bigwigs. For instance, when M-PESA was starting, young people were taken advantage of by the main player, Safaricom. During the COVID-19 period, some young people in Kenya who were making beds for multinationals were also taken advantage of. This amendment will address such issues by making it mandatory for the agency to train those young people and assist them in registering with Kenya Industrial Property Institute (KIPI), so that they can reap the benefits of their innovations."
