Fusion Point

Where innovation begins

Esade Fusion Point

Fusion Point is an academic initiative that encourages applied research and new teaching methodologies by solving business challenges.

We bring together technology, design, management, and business law in an innovative educational experience – that provides real solutions to global challenges that impact on organisations and society.  

 It is a pioneering project led by Esade, the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), and the Istituto Europeo di Design (IED). Involves interdisciplinary teams of students, researchers, and lecturers, who combine knowledge and experience in the service of society.



We are prototyping the future of education!
