International Advisory Board

The ESADE International Advisory Board is formed by presidents, former presidents, vice-presidents and CEOs of leading multinationals. The IAB openly discusses ESADE's competitive strategy and the Business School's most important strategic options for the future. The Board meets annually with ESADE to discuss the socioeconomic and political changes that are taking place, and to identify those areas in which ESADE can be a significant agent for positive change at the international level.

The success of any major business school stems from its international reputation, its prestige and undoubtedly from the message that the school inspires and transmits. The ESADE International Advisory Board is a vital catalyst behind the School's global strategy.

Through their input, the Board Members provide ESADE with support in three interrelated and complementary areas:

Innovation: to foster innovation in the curriculum and research activity from a global viewpoint.

Relevance: to ensure that ESADE addresses the current and future global needs of companies and society.

Impact: to accomplish the School's mission and influence the future global development of executive education.
