I had the opportunity to speak at the Stanford Africa Business forum held over the past weekend at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. The forum presented an opportunity for key stakeholders - business leaders, policy makers, faculty and students to exchange ideas and forge mutually beneficial relationships that will facilitate development in Africa. The conference was based around the theme of entrepreneurship as the catalyst of development and featured panels and discussions around various industries pertinent to Africa's social and economic development, exploring the impact of entrepreneurship on development in Africa, and looked at various practical avenues and opportunities for entrepreneurial involvement in Africa - http://bit.ly/frwNxc
