Executive MBA Madrid

A challenge with purpose

Madrid, Spain

The Spanish capital is home to many national and multinational companies, and is the heart of the country’s financial industry, as well as the seat of its political institutions. IESE’s Madrid campus is located in a quiet neighborhood near the city center. Already impressive – with landscaped gardens, multimedia learning technologies, lecture rooms and a library – the campus is undergoing an ambitious expansion plan to double its capacity and triple its footprint.

“The challenge is not just knowing what you are going to do, but more importantly, who you want to be. In the Executive MBA you are going to be challenged so many times and in so many ways that, when you graduate, you will be able to say: I am ready to make a difference .”
