    By 2020, Africa will be home to 1 in 5 of the planet’s young people and have the world’s largest working population. Global executives and investors cannot afford to ignore the continent’s immense potential. A strategy for Africa must be part of their long-term planning. Today the rate of return on foreign investment in Africa is higher than in any other developing region. (Source: McKinsey Global Institute) Critical to realizing this potential is a pipeline of educated producers and consumers equipped not just with technical skills but the ability to apply that knowledge beyond the classroom. The Leadership & Entrepreneurship Incubator was developed to provide vulnerable youth from deeply rural areas of East Africa with opportunities to work with their peers across borders to develop life and leadership skills that will enable them to become successful leaders, entrepre-neurs and global citizens.
