For Kafui Gadegbeku (C25), choosing Lancaster University Ghana was more than an academic decision, it was a life-shaping journey. By pursuing a world-class British education right here in his home country, Kafui gained access to top-tier teaching, global exposure, and an environment that allowed him to thrive both personally and professionally.
One of the highlights of Kafui’s university experience was earning a place in a prestigious investment banking internship program at Jefferies in the United Kingdom. This opportunity not only sharpened his professional skills but also gave him a firsthand glimpse into the fast-paced world of global finance.
Equally transformative was the chance to connect with people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, building friendships and networks that span across the world. For Kafui, these experiences enriched his academic journey and deepened his understanding of the global community he is now ready to be part of.
Reflecting on his time at Lancaster University Ghana, Kafui recognizes the unique value of being able to study internationally while staying close to home, gaining a globally respected British degree in Ghana while opening doors to opportunities beyond.
As he graduates with the Class of 2025, Kafui stands ready to step into the next chapter of his life with confidence, knowledge, and a vision for impact. His journey is a testament to the power of education to transform not only careers, but lives.
