Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS)

“It’s a story written in the stars.” When Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS), Africa’s leading business school, made its agenda known – to build sustainable, responsible governance that has a net positive effect on the environment – we knew it was a natural fit. GIBS understands something we too recognise, champion and own: there is a cost to inaction. Known and celebrated for nurturing true business leaders, GIBS has now grown its insightful impact with an MBA programme focused on climate leadership and sustainability. It’s writing a story worth reading, and we’re here to invest in it for the long run.
