Namibia's first Bloomberg Finance Lab is set to expand beyond university students, with plans underway to introduce Bloomberg-backed financial literacy and markets training to secondary schools across the Khomas Region.
The initiative, spearheaded by the Namibia Investment and Finance Academy (NIFA), will use the Bloomberg Finance Lab at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) as a launchpad for a pilot programme aimed at equipping learners with practical knowledge of financial markets, investment, entrepreneurship and economic decision-making.
The programme is expected to offer Bloomberg Financial Foundations certification, financial literacy workshops, entrepreneurship boot camps and career guidance sessions to learners from Grade 8 upwards.
The planned rollout was announced during a visit by Khomas Governor Sam Shafiishuna Nujoma to the Bloomberg Finance Lab, where he was introduced to the technology and training platforms used by leading universities and financial institutions worldwide.

The Meat Corporation of Namibia (Meatco) is in discussions with retail giants Woolworths and Shoprite as it seeks to expand sales of Namibian beef through supermarket chains in local and regional markets.
Meatco Interim Chief Executive Officer Albertus Aochamub said the company is pursuing the partnerships as part of a broader strategy to increase market access, improve product availability and generate higher returns through value-added products.
The move will see Meatco shift beyond its traditional model of supplying bulk beef cartons to retailers by introducing smaller, consumer-ready family packs for supermarket shelves.
"So what we're working on is instead of the minimum 10kg boxes and 8kg boxes for retail clients, we want to provide the option of what is called family packs, retail size," Aochamub said.
