FT - A study in African ingenuity

Financial times wrote an article about management education in emerging markets, particularly the African market. The top business schools in the west have always flocked to India and china, today they are looking at Africa. Management education brings an established set of criteria that one can use to help run or sustain an enterprise. Africa's growth has been in the double digits due to commodities and globalization.

This growth has fueled the need for badly needed management education and world class business schools. Africans values education and some are starting to realize the need to learn the global business language is crucial for Africa to move forward. I see many of the western business schools to engage in joint-ventures with Africa universities for this type of education.
