As the first full time 1 year MBA Program in Luxury Brand Management in English to be launched in the world in 1995, the program was initially greeted with scepticism by a public unaccustomed to industry orientated MBA’s. Today, we are ranked Number 1 worldwide and thanks to the support of the sectors major players, and our triple accreditation, (AACSB, EQUIS, AMBA) not only have we maintained our supremacy but we have become a reference for the global luxury industry with many of our graduates now holding key positions worldwide. For those of you who may have missed a chapter of our history, in September 2017 the MBA in International Luxury Brand Management changed format, joined forces with ESSEC’s MBA in Strategy and Management and was renamed Global MBA with Major in Luxury Brand Management. The wide choice of luxury specialized classes remains exactly the same, as does the mentor program, luxury conferences, field trips, boutique internships and field projects which make our program so unique. In addition to this advanced specialized content, participants of the program can now also benefit from an enhanced core curriculum emphasizing macroeconomics, the crucial role of innovation, digital transformation, financial skills and complexity management. And new this year : Power BI, google analytics, blockchain and specific courses on sustainability in luxury. Luxury participants will now take courses with participants specialized in 2 other majors (strategy and management, and digital business and innovation) thereby also broadening their network of peers. As opposed to competing MBA programs offering a less concentrated luxury specialization, our newly formatted GMBA in Luxury Brand Management continues to allow our participants to benefit from a deep-dive into the management of luxury brands (60% of the program) whilst also enhancing their leadership, managerial and digital skills. The program continues to attract participants from all over the world with an average of 7 years international professional experience who are provided with highly concentrated and intensive exposure to fashion & accessories, jewellery and watches, fragrances and cosmetics, wines and spirits and retail. The MBA Program also provides ongoing career orientation and support to participants to help them find suitable positions upon graduation.
