Overview

CBS Africa is a student-led organization with the aim to foster the link between CBS students and the African Business environment. We are curating a network of dedicated students interested in understanding the relationship between Africa and the global economy. Our goal is to encourage sustainable investments in Africa, contributing to economic and social development in cooperation with thought leaders and industry practitioners. In addition, we aim to amend the perception the global community has about Africa and highlight the wealth of opportunities available on the continent. Our mission is to provide the CBS community with increased exposure to business and investment opportunities in Africa. On our journey, the activities by CBS Africa will enhance awareness of Africa’s growing economies and provide an understanding of its cultural diversity. In addition, we explore opportunities to employ innovation and technology in the problem-solving of the continent’s key issues stifling growth. We are an organization open to anyone interested in Africa, regardless of their background or prior exposure to Africa.
