Our mission is to foster collaboration between the business school’s academic network, the African business community, political leadership and international African development enthusiasts towards the advancement of the continent’s commercial and socioeconomic prospects, with initiatives that embody the “Intelligent Business” mantra of Imperial College Business School.
In addition, we aim to amend the perception the global community has about Africa and highlight the wealth of opportunities available on the continent by stimulating dialogue on the key issues stifling Africa’s growth and explore opportunities to employ innovation and technology in the resolution of the continent’s problems.
