Hope Global Hospitality Tech
Welcome
Hope Global Hospitality Tech is a dynamic Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) committed to transforming hospitality education in Africa. Founded by Senan Goundjo, a seasoned hospitality and technology professional with over 15 years of experience in Africa and the United States, our mission is to empower African youth through access to quality education, cutting-edge training, and meaningful industry connections.
We bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical industry skills, focusing on hospitality management and technology integration. With an initial five-year emphasis on West Africa, our programs aim to build expertise, foster innovation, and contribute to economic growth.
Through partnerships with esteemed educational institutions and hospitality leaders worldwide, we deliver annual training programs, hands-on learning opportunities, and mentorship to equip the next generation of African hospitality professionals with the tools they need to excel in a modern, tech-driven world.
At Hope Global Hospitality Tech, we believe in the power of education to inspire change, foster growth, and create a brighter future for Africa. Join us as we work to shape the leaders of tomorrow in the global hospitality industry.
