During his working visit to Ghana over the summer, founder Patrick Awuah expanded our official and unofficial network of Ashesi supporters. He formalized relationships with three people, Nancy Keteku, Kofi Kwakwa and Ken Ofori-Atta, bringing them onto Ashesi’s Ghanaian Advisory Council. Together they bring great management experience and knowledge of both business and academia in Ghana today. Our Ghanaian advisors are already giving us input concerning what opportunities to pursue, what pitfalls to look out for, and how to proceed in building Ashesi. Their quick feedback and high level of interest in our project will no doubt be all the more valuable as we establish operations in Ghana. (For information on all of our advisors and trustees, see About Ashesi.)
