IE Business School is a graduate and undergraduate school of business, located in Madrid, Spain. It was founded in 1973[1] under the name Instituto de Empresa and since 2009 is part of IE University. IE Business School runs BBA, MBA, Executive MBA, master's degree programs in finance and management, executive education programs, PhD, and DBA programs.
In 1973, three entrepreneurs founded IE Business School with the goal of fostering an entrepreneurial environment. This is achieved through its various programs and many collaborations, such as the IE Brown Executive MBA,[2] a dual MBA with Brown University, and an Asian-focused program run with Singapore Management University.[3]
IE Business School is centrally situated in Barrio de Salamanca, Madrid's financial district. The IE campus currently occupies a total area of some 28000m2, distributed among 17 buildings along and near Calle Maria de Molina.
In addition to the existing IE Business school campus, IE University has a new campus, known as "Campus IE", located in the north of Madrid. The new campus hosts 6,000 students and has an area of 50000m2.[4]
