CEMS partnerships and career opportunities

CEMS was built on the vision of creating a bridge between the academic and corporate worlds. Since 2010, CEMS has also integrated non-profit organisations as Social Partners to positively influence all members of the CEMS alliance.

Students benefit from these interactions through Skill Seminars, Business Projects and networking events that bring the corporate and non-profit world into the classroom. This direct interaction allows students to explore many different career paths and meet key decision makers in a variety of sectors.
