IE alumni form part of a 33,000-strong network spread over 85 countries across the world. They share far more than a master’s title. They share the IE experience - a life-changing experience in an international business school that is independent and diverse, where entrepreneurship and innovation form part of the day-to-day fabric, along with academic excellence, a superlative corporate network, and socially responsible vision.
IE is itself the creation of an entrepreneur, and the entrepreneurial spirit of the founder has therefore been a guiding principle since our inception. At IE we view entrepreneurship as a mentality-driven process that is focused on the systematic identification, evaluation and development of business opportunities. To further build on this entrepreneurial spirit, IE has an Entrepreneurship Department with a team comprising over 200 external tutors who serve as mentors during the development of business plans, and design training programmes in the fields of corporate venturing, family venturing and independent venturing.
