Pan-Atlantic University is a private, non-profit educational institution in Lagos, Nigeria. The university had its origin as the Lagos Business School (LBS), established in 1991. The federal government approved the university as Pan-African University in 2002, and the LBS became its first school. In May 2013 its name was changed to Pan-Atlantic University, in order to avoid confusion with the Pan-African University of the African Union.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pan-African University Changes Name To Pan-Atlantic )〕 The Ajah Campus was completed in 2003 and in 2010 work began on the Ibeju-Lekki campus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=First 20 Years )〕 In September 2011 the university launched the Virtual Museum of Modern Nigerian Art, a website created by Jess Castellote, a Spanish architect that includes over 400 works from 81 artists, including pioneering Nigerian artists such as Aina Onabolu and Bruce Onobrakpeya and emerging artists such as Richardson Ovbiebo and Babalola Lawson. The University's Enterprise Development Centre (EDC) works with the Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) Department of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) to provide the SME Toolkit Nigeria. This gives small businesses free business management information and training. In November and December 2011 the EDC organized a "Global Entrepreneurship Week", with a series of events in Lagos. Many Nigerians have ambitions to start a business, and the conference was extremely well-attended. In July 2011 British Prime Minister David Cameron spoke at the Pan-Atlantic University in Lagos, discussing aid, trade and democracy. He spoke in favor of an African free trade area, and of increased trade with Britain. On 17 November 2014 the University launched its first ever undergraduate programmes in its new campus at Ibeju-Lekki. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pan-Atlantic University」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
