• This learning and knowledge research group has emerged due to the emphasis laid today on learning processes within organizations and the centrality of knowledge in its management, creation, application and dissemination aspects. The spaces where organizations, knowledge, research and their efficient management intersect are the defining traits of developed societies.
• This is a multi-disciplinary group that gives special attention to empirical studies, accentuating a research philosophy that is very closely linked to companies and their problems.
• Respectful of all philosophies and research methods, GRACO particularly supports qualitative methods and the use of innovative research methodology.
• This is currently a consolidated research group that receives formal support from the Catalan Government

ESADE designed a KIC proposal for the first EIT (European Institute of Innovation and Technology) call in the field of Sustainable Energy. The 16th on December, our candidacy won the competition, turning into the EIT KIC for Sustainable Energy and the major innovation network in the field. Innoenergy, as our KIC is called, is formed by 35 main shareholders which represent the leading actors (universities, research centres and industry) in the field of sustainable energy in Europe. ESADE is the leading business school and has helped the consortium to design a coherent innovation network and to prepare a business plan in order to integrate the knowledge triangle and create economic and societal value by developing ideas from mind to market.
