Welcome Speech from the Director
Dear Visitors, Partners, Alumni, Students, and Friends,
I am delighted to welcome you to Redeemer’s University’s Directorate of Strategic Communications and Development.
The power of connection between individuals, concepts, and organisations is at the core of our university’s development. Our Directorate aims to deepen such ties by spearheading initiatives in communication, collaborations, fundraising, internationalisation, and enterprise development. We take pride in being a crucial conduit between the institution and the outside world, sharing our experiences, fostering connections, and attracting support that promotes excellence in research, teaching, and volunteer work.
We also value our donors and graduates, whose ongoing support and kindness help to fortify our foundation. We are fostering the next generation of entrepreneurs and innovators with the opening of our Knowledge and Enterprise Development Hub. We are also pleased to welcome students from all around the world into our academic community as we expand our international presence.
Whether you are a prospective student seeking an internationally recognised education, an alumnus re-establishing contact with your alma mater, or a partner wishing to collaborate, we encourage you to get in touch with us.
As a team, we can do more. We can create a compelling narrative of development, influence, and change if we work together.
Welcome once again—and thank you for being part of our journey.
