IESE Business School

The Inside Africa program offers participants a first-hand view of the business context in Kenya and South Africa, although the scope of the program extends to the entire Sub-Saharan region. Kenya (ranked number 72 in the World Bank Doing Business 2008 report) and South Africa (ranked number 35) present an illustrative contrast between two countries in different stages of development.

IESE faculty will team up with faculty from Strathmore University in Nairobi and with faculty from the Gordon Institute of Business Sicence at the University of Pretoria in Johannesburg. The intensive week-long program comprises a rich blend of highly interactive sessions, company visits and presentations by local experts. Guest speakers will reflect all facets of the public and private sectors. During the course, participants gain the necessary insights to build their own high level action plans.
