In July 2026, thirty founders, CEOs, and senior executives gathered for the inaugural edition of The Curia—a private executive retreat designed for leaders navigating growth, governance, and long-term organizational success.
One conversation continued long after the retreat ended.
How do African businesses expand into new markets without underestimating the people challenge?
While strategy often dominates discussions on regional expansion, the reality is that organizations succeed or struggle because of leadership, talent, culture, and execution.
The Curia: An Extract is a focused executive masterclass built around that conversation.
This four-hour experience explores what it truly takes to prepare an organization for successful expansion across Africa.
Together, we'll examine:
- What makes an organization genuinely ready for expansion
- Building leadership capacity before entering new markets
- Hiring local talent versus deploying existing teams
- Creating culture across multiple countries
- Common mistakes that undermine regional growth
- Practical lessons from real expansion journeys
Whether you're planning your first market entry or strengthening your organization's readiness for regional growth, this session is designed to leave you with practical frameworks, better questions, and clearer decisions.
Because expansion isn't just about entering new markets. It's about building an organization capable of succeeding once you get there.
