LEAP

Leadership and Entrepreneurship Accelerator Programme

The LEAP programme develops business, entrepreneurial and leadership skills through launching social enterprise projects to target key global issues, based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals from the United Nations. International and local students develop their own ideas into a business pitch. Global experts act as coaches, mentors and guides, before becoming investors, ready to provide real-life funding after the final pitch. 

Our commitment is to run an introspective, supportive programme, which teases out different types of leadership styles, embraces female empowerment, and helps students equip themselves to lead in a world which they positively shape.
