In January 2012, BEM and Euromed Management announced a ‘rapprochement’, the result of which will be the creation of KEDGE Business School, a European center of excellence for business education. The objective? To become one of the 15 leading European Business Schools over the next five years.
The complementary strengths offered by both sides of this partnership will be key in ensuring that the new institution will meet the international standards required to retain BEM’s ‘Triple Crown’ accreditation, and can offer a global outreach.
The mission of KEDGE Business School is to meet international challenges in research, whilst developing new and innovative teaching programs.
The school will open in September 2013.

BEM CAMPUS
BEM offers a large portfolio of degree programs ranging from bachelor’s and master’s degrees to MBAs and Executive Education. Research performed by its faculty is highly regarded, and covers such areas as global responsibility, global supply chain, wine and spirits management, arts & culture management and innovation in SME.
International students can also take a semester abroad in one of its 128 partner universities; a unique occasion to broaden your mind! They can also benefit from contact with members of BEM Talents, the federated network of over 20,000 alumni around the world, which plays an active role in the BEM community.
Bordeaux, in which the school is located, is registered as World Heritage UNESCO Site. And the wider Aquitaine region has its charms too: the Atlantic coast with its vast sandy beaches and world-famous surf spots, the Arcachon basin, the rural appeal of the Landes, and the majestic Pyrenees, to name but a few.
BEM holds three accreditations – from EQUIS, AACSB and AMBA – and has been ranked by the Financial Times since 2008.
