I feel honoured and extremely grateful to have received this scholarship award. South Africa is a beautiful and culturally diverse country but one that also has its challenges, including the notably high levels of inequality and poverty. This scholarship and the associated mentorship from Jochen Runde, together with the Cambridge MBA, will provide me with the unparalleled opportunity to explore ideas around solving South Africa’s key challenges and will better position me for a more impactful post-MBA journey.
