Beyond Aid: Investing in Africa’s Future | Ore Obiwumi, MBA ’24

Imagine a world where African nations receive sustained investments instead of mere aid programs. Across the continent, there’s a wealth of young, educated individuals bursting with potential, eager to innovate and create. Yet, for far too long, these aspiring entrepreneurs have been hindered by limited access to the capital needed to grow their businesses. Transitioning to an investment-focused approach in Africa holds the key to unlocking transformative change and fostering greater opportunities for all.
Speaker: Ore Obiwumi, MBA ’24
The LOWkeynotes Program features a series of nine-minute ‘keynote-style’ presentations from Stanford Graduate School of Business students about an idea they think could change lives, organizations, and the world. This presentation was delivered for the March 2024 LOWkeynotes season.
