After five years dedicated to advancing executive education across Africa, the Global Management Institute (GMI) has reached a new milestone with the launch of the African Decision-Makers Forum, an initiative developed in partnership with ESC Pau Business School / éklore éducation and Perspectives Managériales Editions.
Designed as a pan-African platform for reflection, dialogue, and collaboration, the Forum brings together participants, alumni, and partners of GMI’s executive education programs, alongside decision-makers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and development stakeholders from across the continent.
Its ambition is to build a strong network of influence and an African think tank that promotes knowledge sharing, innovative ideas, and practical solutions to Africa’s major economic, social, and managerial challenges.
On July 4, 2026, at the Palais des Congrès in Marrakech, this vision became a reality with the official launch of the Forum’s first edition.
The African Decision-Makers Forum is now underway, opening a new chapter dedicated to shaping Africa’s future through knowledge, research, and leadership.
