Referencing a previous colloquium held in collaboration with the Vienna University of Economics and business in February this year, Dr. Emmanuel Arthur, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Lancaster University Ghana, said in his speech at the 8th undergraduate graduation ceremony that the colloquium would remain an annual event to spur growth.

“Students, thought-leaders, academics and industry practitioners will be given the platform to contribute their knowledge for socio-economic development,” he said.

He said the University’s pre-COVID-19 flagship programme “Business Cup Challenge” for high schools, which was relaunched in February would also be an annual event to partner them and build their skills and competences before they commenced tertiary education.

He reiterated the University’s commitment to provide high quality and global experience to students, particularly on the African continent.
