OUR VISION


At the Africa Club, our vision is to have a profound impact on business development in Africa. We are therefore proud to introduce the ACCEL Awards as part of our long-term commitment to African entrepreneurship. The ACCEL Awards is designed to recognize promising African start-ups and providing them with an international platform to promote their ideas, brands and businesses.

For our sponsoring partners, the ACCEL Awards creates an open platform to engage with emerging African leaders and innovators, and identify pioneering trends and business opportunities. It also offers a unique opportunity to partner with the London Business School, one of the world’s elite business school, get unparalleled visibility and access some of the world’s most successful corporations, innovative entrepreneurs, media firms and global talent pool.

About Us

The Africa Club is a student-run club at London Business School. We exist to promote engagement on Africa within the school and with the broader business community, either in London, Africa or globally. Our members are individuals who have either worked in Africa or have cultural or professional interests in the continent.
