Mission / Vision

Our mission is to teach business, management and business law combining world class research, practice and academia in the heart of Europe.

  • To upgrade and enhance curricula, particularly in schools of management, economics and engineering, by developing appropriate teaching modules and materials.
  • To launch an international comparative research programme on intellectual entrepreneurship and its impact on the world of work in the 21st century.
