The GAICAM Annual Leadership and Entrepreneurial Fellowship is a designed annual training platform that brings together aspiring leaders and potential entrepreneurs across Cameroon to orientate and train them on sustainable leadership and entrepreneurial skills for today’s complex digital environment, all in an effort to invest in the next generation of Cameroonian leaders, and potential entrepreneurs who will serve as pavements to the emergence of Cameroon.

This initiative is expected to create new businesses and spur economic growth, promoting good governance and national unity, while enhancing peace and security across Cameroon, Africa and the world at large. There are no short cuts to the development of mindsets and abilities; it demands concerted training, discipline, focus and above all leadership and entrepreneurial skills which are of paramount importance in our journey towards the pinnacle of emergence and excellence in Cameroon and Africa at large. We can attain our highest potentials by continuously developing our abilities, inspiring and empowering young people to discover and live their full potential. This program is design to run annually during the long term holidays (July-August). We understand and recognize the need to help students, graduates and Cameroonians think beyond their certificates and the confines of survival, to how they who are the partners of today and the leaders of tomorrow can collectively work to make our nation Cameroon, top amongst others in Africa and why not Africa in the world.

It takes strong and devoted leaders to change policies and rigid systems and to educate and create opportunities for others as well. Developing the strongest most diverse talents and equipping potential leaders with quality skills, capable of enabling them achieve better results, as well as thrive in their endeavours is the core of our initiative. It is part of our vision that young African Leaders are co-opted and businesses created to speed the growth of Cameroon and Africa at large. A thriving nation implies a thriving economy, and a thriving economy does not just happen in isolation without initiators and innovators. We understand the importance of inspiring graduates, youths and especially women to become creative and set up their own businesses and become extraordinary in their fields.
