Cohorts starting in April 2012 will be the first to visit New York University Leonard N. Stern School of Business (Mannheim Weekend Track) and University of California, Los Angeles, Anderson School of Management (Paris Weekend Track)

Program participants gain business exposure in three of the world's most important economic regions – Europe, North America and Asia

The curriculum of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA has been enriched with yet another highly attractive element: As of 2012, a residency at a renowned business school in the U.S. forms an integral part of the program. The first to benefit from the innovation will be the members of the next ESSEC & MANNHEIM Weekend Executive MBA classes, who will start their program in April 2012 and can look forward to spending a week at UCLA Anderson School of Management (Paris Weekend Track) or NYU Stern (Mannheim Weekend Track). Professor Holger Mueller, the Bank and Financial Analysts Faculty Fellow and a Professor of Finance at NYU Stern, will serve as the Academic Director for this exciting residency. Professor Mueller received his Habilitation in Economics from the University of Mannheim and has been a professor at NYU Stern since 2001. The ESSEC Weekend Track will enjoy a one week exchange with the Anderson School of Management, led by Gonzalo Freixes, Associate Dean for the Fully Employed MBA and Executive MBA Programs at UCLA. The program in California will mix classes, company visits in the Silicon Valley as well as cultural visits. The UCLA participants will attend classes in Mannheim Business School and the ESSEC Executive Education campus in Paris. This newly introduced U.S. residency makes the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA even more attractive. Participants now have the opportunity to gain direct business exposure in three of the most important economic regions in the world – Europe, North America and Asia. While the majority of courses take place in Mannheim and Paris, the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA also includes a ten-day stay in Singapore and Shanghai in addition to the newly introduced U.S. residency. The ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA is now one of the most international Executive MBA programs in the world. It is already considered among the best globally in terms "international course experience", according to the Financial Times. In fact, the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA currently holds 11th place worldwide in that category in their Global Executive MBA Ranking (October 2011).]]> E&M Homepage Thu, 02 Feb 2012 14:29:00 +0100 http://www.essec-mannheim.com/news/news-article/date/2011/12/15/article/return-remember-reconnect-annual-mbs-alumni-homecoming-2011.html On November 26, 2011, Mannheim Castle once again opened its doors to host our signature alumni...

Association of MBAs (AMBA) presents entrepreneurship award to three alumni of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA for recently-founded company Treasury Intelligence Solutions that was developed as part of the program

Award recognizes Mannheim's pervasive entrepreneurial spirit and firm commitment to excellence, according to MBS president Jens Wüstemann

Based on their "Entrepreneurial Project", which is an integral part of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA and requires students to develop a real life business case, MBS alumni Erol Bozak, Wolfgang Kalthoff and Jörg Wiemer founded their own company shortly upon graduation in 2009. Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS), as they called the company, offers innovative and easy to use risk and compliance solutions in the areas of bank account and cash management. Since its inception, the company has gone from strength to strength: Earlier this year the TIS executive team announced a € 2.5 million investment into the company by Munich-based venture capital firm Target Partners as well as a cooperative sales partnership with Deutsche Bank AG. In recognition of their achievements, the three Mannheim entrepreneurs were the first to receive the international Entrepreneurial Venture Award, launched this year by the Association of MBAs (AMBA), one of the three leading international associations for accredited business schools. The winners were announced at the annual Gala dinner of the association, which was held at prestigious Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington, London, on October 19, 2011. The aim of TIS is to provide secure and efficient payment solutions for businesses. "All business-critical processes related to payment transactions, cash balances, payment statuses and bank account responsibilities are managed in a single, audit-proof application", explains Wiemer who holds the position of CEO at TIS. "The solution is sold in the Software as a Service (SaaS) model and is easy to implement - without the need for costly, resource-intensive project planning, thereby delivering quick time to value for customers." The Entrepreneurial Project is a key element of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Executive MBA program and designed to promote innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset. Students are challenged to transform their ideas into concrete business plans and to apply the cross-disciplinary knowledge they acquire in the course of their program. "Through the Entrepreneurial Project, students give proof positive that they not only understand business imperatives, but are able to act upon them as well", says Professor Dr. Jens Wüstemann, President of Mannheim Business School. Thus it should come as no surprise that a significant number of graduates found their own company upon graduation – and do so rather successfully, as the example of TIS shows.]]> E&M Homepage MBS Homepage Fri, 21 Oct 2011 13:32:00 +0200 http://www.essec-mannheim.com/news/news-article/date/2011/09/22/article/runtegrate.html Social Class Project of the ESSEC & MANNHEIM Weekend Executive MBA Class of 2012 www.runtegrate.de.
