Our founding companies, foundations, friends, alumni, supporters and engaged volunteers comprise a strong network of partners crucial to ESMT’s development.
Strong Partnerships for Excellence
ESMT was founded in 2002 by twenty-five leading German companies and associations to establish an international business school, based in Germany, with a distinct European focus.
Thanks to the generosity and vision of ESMT’s strong corporate network, our school has acquired over 70 million Euro in new financial support since 2009. Read more
In addition, the generosity of partners such as E.ON, Ernst & Young, Deutsche Lufthansa, Ferrero, Karl-Heinz Kipp, and Deutsche Telekom AG have enabled new chaired professorships which strengthen research, teaching and educational programs at ESMT.
Building for the Future
Several other initiatives, including our fellowship programs as well as a strong circle of ESMT Friends and Alumni further help us to excel and pave the way to a sustainable future for “the business school founded by business”.
