About us
The future of African business highly depends on the quality of African university graduates. Too often, as the African Development Bank states, young African talent is not adequately prepared for a career in business. Traditional approaches in university research and education prevent graduates, particularly in STEM disciplines, from considering a business career after graduation. It is more important than ever that Africa's youth is prepared to bring knowledge and skills to solve problems, make sense of information, and know-how to gather and evaluate evidence to make decisions. Precisely these skills are developed in science, technology, engineering and math disciplines, collectively known as STEM.

One of our #Ghana1000Alumni, Courage Lawson, who is also an alumnus of the University of Cape Coast (UCC), got the opportunity to serve as a Teaching & Research Assistant at his alma mater during his mandatory year-long period of service to the nation. "Collaborating to tackle real-world problems and applying creative solutions was pleasant. Presenting our solutions and receiving feedback from industry professionals was particularly rewarding and fulfilling." — Courage We have no doubt that his time at the UCC School of Agriculture was made even more impactful by the highly relevant skills he gained during the #Ghana1000 program earlier this year. #iiAfrica #Ghana1000 #DataScience #DataVisualisation #DataAnalytics #BusinessAnalytics
