This month, the Spanish business magazine ACTUALIDAD ECONOMICA published a supplement listing the prizes they are awarding to "The 100 BEST IDEAS - the most brilliant products and services launched in the last few months."

As you can see from the enclosed copy, The Africa Initiative at IESE is one of them:

"This Initiative at IESE is to create a link or association between Spanish and African business schools. Its objective is to make a contribution towards the education of African business faculty. To that effect, they are already cooperating with Lagos Busines School (Nigeria), Nile University (Egypt) and Strathmore Business school (Nairobi)".

IESE is also working with the newly created Angola School of Business and IHE in Ivory Coast.

This is not so much a prize for "The Africa Initiative", but to all of us as a vey wide team, in all the different departments of the various academic institutions, who are generously contributing to all this underlying effort towards the creation and development of high quality busines schools in the African continent.
