Over 900 students, alumni, teachers, entrepreneurs and managers have participated at\u00a0the most important event of BBS. A special occasion devoted to the celebration of\u00a0the conclusion of the Masters, to strengthen the\u00a0network and\u00a0the Community of the school.<\/p>\n

The program was opened by the Dean, Massimo Bergami<\/strong>. The Dean recalled how the school is moving in the challenge of internationalization:\u00a0\u201cOur\u00a0Global MBA has earned the EPAS accreditation from EFMD. This is the first Italian MBA receiving that prestigious award. Two new partners have joined the EMBA Consortium we have founded, enriching the opportunities for the\u00a0Executive area of the School: Cranfield School of Managenent in UK and the Lucas Graduate School of Management in California. Moreover, we offer two new\u00a0international programs: the Organization & HRM Master for graduating students, and the track in\u00a0Innovation Management of the Global MBA. “Now is starting a\u00a0new age for BBS, a new story to that we hope to write together with you. We wish\u00a0that you will continue to learn at BBS, and that you thirst of knowledge may\u00a0infect the people working with you.”<\/p>\n
\n\u201cSuspended between past and future , today we celebrate quietly 15 years of the school, founded July 22, 2000.\u00a0The first year we had about forty students: in 2014 our programs have registered nearly 650 people, not including the on-demand programs,\u00a0and last year nearly the 40% of the students enrolled in Full-time Masters was coming from other countries.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThe women enrolled in our Full-time and Part-time Masters are nearly the 50% , a percentage\u00a0out of scale compared\u00a0to\u00a0the most renowned international business schools. In 2014 we provided Scholarship for 1,360,000 Euro, and 2,100,000 Euro in\u00a0loans thanks to\u00a0UniCredit.
