Clubs and Associations

Enhance Your MBA Experience

Esade MBA student clubs offer you the chance to develop leadership and management skills, expand your interests and meet likeminded people. The clubs are divided into two categories: business and social. Being active in a club is a clear signal to prospective employers that you’re a team player with broad interests, and that you have the drive to follow your passion. All of the clubs are run by students and coordinated by the MBA student association (MBASA).

The Real Estate Club is about connecting people around this business, hanging out meeting new friends, and sharing our knowledge in this field with love and passion.

Our Mission

Our mission is to connect people interested in this business, coming from different backgrounds, but talking about it in a friendly mood and sharing their experiences to learn and improve from different perspectives.

In this way, we can attract many people with the same interest and start a little community to gather information from different points of view.

What do we do

First, we will try to meet up once a month to comment on the real estate situation around the world and some open positions at big companies.

In addition, we will hold a community meeting and have dinners in Barcelona. We will try to make some trips around Europe to realize different opportunities and what is going on in other countries.

To conclude, the main goal of the club is to gather people with the same interest in the real estate industry and have fun learning and sharing thoughts about everything that could surround this business.

Esade MBASA VP 2024

  • Vitor Vssimon

    MBASA President

    One of the main reasons for applying to MBASA was because I quickly learned this association was at the heart of Esade's MBA experience. Setting guidelines, empowering the student clubs and organizing opportunities for growth and learning throughout the cohort seemed like a rewarding challenge. And I was not wrong. I cannot imagine my MBA journey without all the teachings that being in such a position has offered me and I will take those learnings to future projects and endeavours.

    My role as president is coordinating projects and priorities within the MBASA board so we can work as effectively as possible and achieve our collective objectives!

  • Nikita Samyal

    VP of Communications
