This week, we are proud to host 27 students for the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM) #GNAMWeek 2026. This year's cohort brings together participants from #Kenya, #Nigeria, #SouthAfrica, #Singapore, #Malawi, #USA, #Switzerland, and #China, creating a truly global learning environment. The week began with a very interesting presentation by Dr. Caesar J.Muriithi Mwangi on the topic, "Doing Business in Africa: The Opportunity." Using thought-provoking discussions, he asked everyone to move their minds away from the problems associated with Africa and instead consider the huge opportunity that exists. This was about issues relating to leadership, entrepreneurship, innovation, value creation, and leveraging opportunities. The entire week will see the participants interacting with the SBS faculty, businesspeople, entrepreneurs, and experts from the industry. Launched in 2012, the Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM) brings together leading business schools from around the world to foster collaboration, global exposure, and a deeper understanding of the opportunities and challenges shaping economies across different regions. Through initiatives such as Global Network Week, participants gain valuable international perspectives while building meaningful professional connections. #GNAM #Leadership #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #DoingBusinessInAfrica #MBA #FutureLeaders #AfricaOpportunity Caesar J.Muriithi Mwangi Moses Mugo Stella Nyongesa Dr. Tabitha Njuguna Salome Wangechi Alois Njenga Joseph Mwangi Julliet Hinga Strathmore University
