About CSE
As the worldwide leader in entrepreneurship management, CSE is the creator of entrepreneurship education and convenor of entrepreneurial leaders in Kenya.
We are an entrepreneurship training center with incubator, accelerator, educational offerings and activities at Kenya’s largest and internationally renowned Tourist location Mombasa. We exist to help students and researchers develop their entrepreneurial capabilities that will serve them, their career, and society for a lifetime. At CSE, we have a great desire to transform society with business. We believe that entrepreneurship plays a critical role in solving the grand challenges that we face as individuals and in organizations and society. Thus, we see it as our business at CSE to energize the collaborative attention around transformational entrepreneurship and bring that into action.
We were the first to understand that thinking and acting entrepreneurially is more than just an inclination—it can be taught. And, for nearly 30 years, we’ve been teaching entrepreneurs and empowering businesses in Europe and North America using the Decalogue Management Methodology ™ (DMM ™) better than anyone.
Entrepreneurial Management Programs That Get Results
At CSE, we believe that entrepreneurship can be a powerful force within organizations of all types and sizes, in established businesses as well as new ventures. In any industry, in any position, it takes entrepreneurial Management to solve problems and make an impact.
CIRMI was founded in 2015 and since then our curriculum has focused more on practical experience and less on lectures to better prepare students for the realities of the business world.
Today in our collaborative community, students gain the fundamental business skills and linguistic knowledge necessary to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset. They then use that mindset to navigate real business situations, putting what they learn into practice and becoming entrepreneurs and leaders equipped to make a difference on campus and around the world.
Our main campus is located in Mombasa, Kenya and we have an agribusiness field site in Shimoni Kwale.
