Are you looking to work in emerging markets? Or do you want to get involved in CSR or social enterprise? Or are you simply looking for a chance to put some of your skills into practice?

Why not badger your tutors to let you come to Kenya for a short elective - mentoring local entrepreneurs to help them to overcome real-life business issues. A new social enterprise called Skills Venture will organise it all for you - from entrepreneur selection to induction to logistics.

Thanks, yes absolutely - but we need to find the MBAs first! There are no set dates at present so we are flexible depending on the timeframes of those people who are interested. In the meantime you can read case studies of previous Skills Venture mentors at www.skillsventure.com/about/casestudies.htm.
