The Vision Behind
Hilltop
Hear directly from Phil Agbeko, Co-Founder & CEO of Hilltop Global Group, Fulbright Specialist, and The PIE 50 Voices Americas honoree (2025), on why Africa belongs at the center of global education and how Hilltop is making that case.
“Shaping the African narrative is taking control of our story and showcasing it to the world.”
Phil Agbeko, Co-Founder & CEO, Hilltop Global Group
Our Story
From One Idea
to a Continent
Two chapters that define how Hilltop grew from a conviction into a pan-African operation.
01
The Mission
At Georgetown University, our founders saw a gap that defined the industry: every major MBA program offered immersions in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Africa was absent. Hilltop was built to close that gap, not as an experiment, but as a conviction that Africa's economies, institutions, and professional networks belong at the center of global education.
