His recognition as one of the top 100 CEOs reflects not only his leadership at BA ISAGO but also his enduring contribution to building Botswana’s human capital and shaping the knowledge-based economy over the last quarter century.
As the university prepares to celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2026, this recognition comes as a powerful reminder of the Institution’s enduring impact and its continued role in shaping Botswana’s educational and socio economic landscape.
From pioneering academic programmes to strengthening industry partnerships, the institution remains committed to developing globally competitive Graduates and inspiring the next generation of leaders.
