IBSA International Business School Alliance

🌍✨ The annual IBSA Conference once again brought together all partner universities of the IBSA Double Degree Master’s Program for two inspiring days of collaboration, innovation, and connection.
This year, we had the pleasure of meeting at the Faculty of Economics of the Universitat de València, where faculty and staff worked on further enhancing the curriculum and strengthening the international student experience.
We are especially excited to welcome a new partner to the IBSA network: the Universidade do Porto! 🎉 Starting in Fall 2027, IBSA students will have the opportunity to spend a semester at the Faculty of Economics of the University of Porto, expanding the program’s global opportunities even further.
Another highlight was the presentation of the Ana Aroca IBSA Thesis Award. Congratulations to John Lie Avang Andrés on this remarkable achievement! 👏 We also extend our sincere appreciation to all nominees whose outstanding research reflects the diversity, quality, and impact of the IBSA community.
For more than 20 years, the IBSA program has been shaped by the dedication, expertise, and enthusiasm of its faculty, staff, alumni, and students. This conference was yet another reminder that the true strength of IBSA lies in its people and the vibrant international community they continue to build together. 🌎💙

Stepping beyond the classroom and into the world of finance 💼📊

Our MBA students specializing in International Finance & Investments had the incredible opportunity to visit one of our valued banking partners Live Oak Bank — gaining firsthand insights into real-world financial strategies, risk management, and investment decision-making.

From theory to practice, this is where future leaders are made. 🚀
