My ESADE MBA

During the ESADE OpenDay at the end of January 2009 it became apparent that there is a large shift in future employment trends. What used be the ladder to the Management Consultancy, the MBA apparently has evolved to become the breeding ground for start-ups. The Financial Crisis most probably has had its fair impact on that trend, shifting the student’s interest from Finance to Business, which is a very positive side-effect from the crisis.

Some of the applicants have even mentioned that they are preparing to set-up their business after the MBA, which is a good sign and speaks for ESADE. Apparently there is sufficient demand and hopefully enough space for these ambitions. There is also a Facebook group called ESADE Entrepreneurship Club,with further links to another website, that provides a platform for entrepreneurs to meet. The group is active and there are several posts with business ideas or concrete projects being realised. Check it out.

In my opinion ESADE should keep that focus on entrepreneurship and strengthen their start-up incubator. I am looking forward to throwing myself in the pool of ESADE entrepreneurship.
