LIVE EVENT
A leading European business school with a strong general management tradition and global campuses.
IESE is among the most highly regarded business schools in Europe, known for a general management approach taught largely through case discussion.
It operates campuses in several cities beyond Barcelona, including Madrid, Munich, New York, and São Paulo, which gives its network genuine international reach.
Barcelona has become one of southern Europe's strongest startup cities, with particular activity in marketplaces, travel technology, mobility, and health.
The city's quality of life and comparatively low costs have attracted international founders and remote technical talent.
Alumni founders are spread across Europe and Latin America in marketplaces, health, consumer, and business services.
The school has been particularly influential in bringing the search fund model to Europe, where a number of its graduates acquire and run existing businesses.
Barcelona and Madrid host a growing venture community, supported by Spanish public co-investment programmes.
The school's alumni network across European finance is an active source of angel and search fund capital.
GCN’s global network includes millions of startups and founders and a broad community of investors, creating opportunities to discover potential connections across university communities.
