The African Leadership Academy, co-founded by Chris Bradford (MBA '06, Siebel Scholar '05) and Fred Swaniker (MBA '04), has been honored with the inaugural Siebel Scholars Impact Award which carries a $250,000 grant from the Siebel Scholars Foundation. The ALA identifies 100 of Africa's most promising young leaders each year and prepares them for higher education at preeminent universities, and for entrepreneurial leadership.
