By once again placing 1st in the Jeune Afrique 2020 ranking of the business schools with the Best Masters in French-speaking sub-Saharan Africa, BEM Dakar has confirmed its leading position.

Since its creation in 2008, the school has demonstrated academic excellence that has earned it the top spot in this ranking for five years.

In this 2020 ranking, the magazine Jeune Afrique has highlighted the attractiveness of BEM Dakar, as well as its selectivity, pedagogy, professionalism, an international reputation, and service to its students. 

Dr Pape Madické DIOP, Chairman and CEO of BEM Dakar said, "We are proud of what we have accomplished together. The credit for these remarkable results goes to the entire educational community of BEM Dakar: parents, students, teachers, managerial and support staff, supervisory authorities, and of course business leaders. BEM Dakar is a belief and passion shared by men and women for whom education is sacred, and for whom Africa is a land of history and future; a continent of all histories and all futures. In Dakar as in Abidjan, the ambition remains the same: to be the leading Business School of the continent". 

Since 2008, KEDGE has been banking on the very strong development potential offered by Senegal and supports the initial training provided on the BEM Dakar campus as well as continuing education programmes. Since its creation, KEDGE has shared the clear and ambitious vision, strong convictions, and passion for human development that are embodied by the BEM Dakar teams. 

For Alexandre de Navailles, KEDGE Director-General, "This well-deserved result once again demonstrates the academic excellence of our partner BEM Dakar, a true leader in higher education on the African continent. Congratulations to everyone for this well-earned reward!”.
