What has AMBA accreditation and membership of the AMBA network meant for your school? “AMBA accreditation is an important milestone in our transformation and growth process and has encouraged the management of both BBS and the wider ASE Bucharest to pursue our objectives with even greater determination. “BBS proudly announced its AMBA accreditation, as well as its BGA membership, in the Romanian media as part of a campaign to increase awareness and boost interest in our MBA/EMBA programmes. It was also a great opportunity to increase engagement with important stakeholders.” How would you describe your business school’s unique selling point to other members of the AMBA network? “BBS is part of one of Romania and South-Eastern Europe’s leading universities of business and economics. Its focus is on supporting the growth and development of professionals, managers, entrepreneurs and leaders of the business environment and society. “Helping individuals to become the best versions of themselves is our way of contributing to a sustainable business environment and society. With our partners, we also bring a global perspective and augment it with local expertise so that, through our students and alumni, we contribute to a collaborative and forward-looking society in the turbulent environment of South-Eastern Europe.”
