Libreville, February 10, 2026 – In a context marked by the restructuring of public policies, increased pressure on organizational performance, and growing demand for transparency, Global Mind Consulting, in partnership with the Homme et Développement firm, is organizing the 5th edition of its Global Master Class on Tuesday, February 17, 2026 at Libreville Business Square (LBS) around the theme: “Data Governance: producing, analyzing, and using information to make better decisions.”
This new edition is part of a clear strategic dynamic: repositioning data as a central lever for credibility, efficiency, and steering of public and private action in Africa.
From available data to decisive data
While many African organizations today produce an increasing amount of data, the ability to structure, validate, and especially transform them into strategic decisions remains a major challenge.
The Global Master Class 2026 aims to address this issue by proposing a pragmatic, operational, and decision-oriented approach, far from theoretical discourses. The event is primarily aimed at public leaders, institutional decision-makers, business leaders, and strategic managers facing complex trade-offs in a demanding environment.
A program focused on impact and responsibility
The program of this 5th edition will revolve around thematic sessions led by recognized experts and practitioners, covering the entire data value chain:
– Production and reliability of information,
– Analysis and strategic interpretation,
– Governance, traceability, and responsibility,
– Use of data as a decision-making tool and impact measurement.
The event will conclude with an interactive exchange format of roundtable discussions and cross-interviews promoting the sharing of concrete experiences and on-the-ground feedback on current and future challenges of data governance in Africa.
A governance practice transformation approach
Beyond a mere reflection meeting, the Global Master Class is part of a sustainable transformation approach to decision-making practices. It promotes governance based on:
– Responsibility,
– Transparency,
– Culture of evaluation,
– And measurable performance.
“Too many public and private decisions are still made with partial, unreliable, or underexploited data. Through this 5th Global Master Class, we aim to put data governance at the heart of strategic decision-making, serving more responsible, efficient, and measurable choices.” – Seynabou DIA SALL, Founder of Global Mind Consulting Group.
