HKBU School of Business partners with Grenoble Ecole de Management to launch new master’s degree in entrepreneurship and global marketing for future global brand leaders
02 Jan, 2018
A new Master of Science (MSc) in Entrepreneurship and Global Marketing programme jointly offered by HKBU School of Business and Grenoble Ecole de Management aims to prepare strategic business and brand leaders of tomorrow in an ever-changing and globalised environment. HKBU School of Business expects the first intake in September 2018.
The 15-month full-time MSc in Entrepreneurship and Global Marketing programme is a unique joint programme that offers students bi-continent learning experience and integrated practical training in both France and Hong Kong. The programme is specially designed for high-achieving fresh graduates and young executives who are keen on global roles.
The programme features an individual/team-based 5-month business project or academic dissertation with mentoring from experienced entrepreneurs and business leaders, and students enjoy the freedom to go anywhere while working on the project. Students will have an opportunity to pitch business ideas to investors in order to bid for up to HK$1 million of Venture Capital Funding to start their own companies. Students will be armed with entrepreneurship tools on starting a business, as well as global marketing skills to grow and sustain it.
Programme Director, Dr. Glos Ho, is excited to welcome the first cohort of exceptionally talented students. “More young people are interested in developing careers overseas, or turning their disruptive ideas into sustainable businesses, which is why we believe it’s time to connect like-minded individuals with high potential through this innovative joint programme.” She would like to extend her sincere gratitude to the Founding Director, Prof. Noel Siu, and former Founding Associate Director, Dr. Marc Mazodier, for initiating this new exciting partnership with GEM to deepen the strategic relationship and strengthen cross-cultural teaching and research.
