Partnerships

Programs for organizations

Types of partnership

In addition to our custom programs for companies, we also have experience designing programs with other types of organizations: 
 

Industry, regional and institutional partnerships

We have a portfolio of long-standing programs leading to the award of a Ramon Llull University-specific degree especially designed for these types of partners: 

  • Program for Leadership Development (PLD)    
  • Program in Financial Management (PDF)     
  • Program in Commercial Management (PDC) 

Industry or sectoral organizations, such as business associations, industry clusters or professional associations. Programs with these partners are designed taking into account the specific challenges facing the industry. They aim to deepen the knowledge and skills needed to manage companies in a constantly changing environment. 

Regional organizations, such as regional business associations and regional clusters. The agreement between Esade and the partner is intended to provide participating companies and executives from the partner’s area of influence with a solid foundation and global perspective of the company, as well as the necessary skills to lead teams and make effective decisions. It also aims to update the knowledge and skills needed, from a comprehensive perspective, to thrive in a changing environment.

Other institutions: chambers of commerce, provincial governments, town councils, public agencies, foundations, partner universities, technology centres, research centres, institutions for economic development, etc

Partnerships with other academic institutions

Business schools around the world include international exchanges in their executive programs or deliver parts of their programs through an academic partner able to offer a complementary vision. 
This time spent abroad helps participants gain a better understanding of how to do business in an international context.

Partnerships with Corporate Universities

Some of Esade Custom Programs’ closest strategic partners in recent years have been the corporate universities of major corporations. As a partner to these corporations, we help:

  • Develop and deliver strategic programs
  • Design personalized pathways for executives

Our partners include corporate universities such as Ferrovial’s Summa University, the Gas Natural Fenosa corporate university, and the La Caixa Executive Development Centre.
