The Kistefos Young Talented Leaders Scholarship is open to candidates from Ethiopia, Liberia, and South Africa who demonstrate academic excellence, strong leadership capabilities, and an entrepreneurial mindset.
The Kistefos Young Talented Leaders Scholarship at IE was set up to remove financial barriers to education for high-potential individuals from Norway and Africa, helping them unleash their innovative business vision.
This generous donation is the most recent installment in IE Foundation’s Talent without Borders scholarship program, which awards scholarships to students from over 90 countries every year.
