From the outset, CMI Business School was founded with a clear purpose: to contribute, through knowledge, development and innovation, to building a society that is fairer and more equitable for everyone. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability run through every one of its master’s programmes as cross-cutting themes, on the understanding that a change of paradigm is achieved by creating programmes at the leading edge, matched to the situations organisations must confront if they are to develop effectively. It is for this reason that, in its latest edition, HIGHER EDUCATION REVIEW — an education portal based in India — highlighted CMI’s commitment to society and to the next generation of professionals, placing CMI Business School among the ten most promising universities and higher education institutions in Spain for Indian students. The article includes an interview with CMI’s president, Rafael García Martín, which can be read here.
The publication draws attention to the fundamental pillars of a CMI education: conscious leadership, to train managers capable of making decisions that benefit both the company and the wider world; the development of a circular economy, mitigating the impacts caused by industry and moving towards the restoration and protection of the environment; and methods of research, development and innovation aimed at creating sustainable alternatives that contribute to economic, social and environmental growth.
Bringing these strands together has shaped a wide diversity of professional profiles, deeply committed to business development and to global development alike. Professionals from more than 45 countries have passed through our classrooms — people able to grow while having a positive impact, and to help build companies with a purpose, together with the strategies, plans and concrete actions needed to deliver the United Nations 2030 Agenda through the Global Compact and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Higher Education Review highlights CMI’s standing as an academic institution in Spain and its commitment to offering more and better opportunities to its students, along with its philanthropic work and its programmes of scholarships and study grants.
