In October 2021, the students from the International MBA had the opportunity to participate in the 3rd edition of the Barcelona MBA Day. An initiative of Barcelona Global, an association of companies, investigation centers, entrepreneurs and institutions leading in the city. The main objective of this event is for students to immerse themselves in the city and become ambassadors of the “Barcelona brand”, helping to position it as a destination for university and postgraduate students.
The Barcelona MBA Day brings together MBA participants from prestigious business schools in the city and gives them the opportunity to network and visit leading companies, start-ups and cultural centers of reference. This year, EADA’s MBA participants visited Barcelona’s leading companies – Grupo Freixenet and Mapfre, cultural centers – Joan Prats Gallery and the Mapfre Foundation and two investigation centers – Barcelona Center of International Affairs and the Parc de Recerca Biomèdica de Barcelona.
I would describe the MBA Day as a unique experience to learn about different industries and how they work. It goes very well with the EADA’s phrase “learn by doing” because it's a great opportunity to learn in the field."
