Doing business in a globalised world means not only having to transcend in the theories of cost accounting and excel formulae making, but it also means being able to apply them within complex real-world challenges. In the long run, studying abstract financial and economic analysis alone will not help us create credibility, nor will it adequately prepare us for doing sustainable business in an interconnected, complex world.

This finance course is an embodiment of these values.

We identified three buildings in the inner-city of Johannesburg. Each of them representing different stages of their investment cycle. We surrender ourselves into these buildings for the duration of the experience.

Through physical observations and rich storytelling, we collect content. The content is used to build financial information in groups throughout the day.

Financial content accumulated is analysed on the second day. There is an investment decision committee simulation where cases are critically considered. A reflective paper testing application is submitted. Strong ideas are scheduled for implementation.
