COVID-19: IESE Online
IESE Business School, Barcelona
Faced with the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic that reached Europe in February 2020, IESE organized an academic crisis committee to find solutions through online teaching. On March 12 the business school announced a partial closure of its facilities in Madrid and Barcelona.[4] As other academic and educational institutions, continued to use the WebEx platform, in addition to the Zoom platform to cover all the courses of the MBA, the Master in Management (MiM) and the Doctoral Program (PhD). The digital transformation process involved continuous interaction with the participants of the different programmes to move forward and consolidate phases.[5] [6]
A digital space of open content online was provided with reports, conferences, interviews and monographs on macroeconomics and politics, business strategies, leadership and people for the world after COVID.[7]

Internationalization
Internationalization has formed part of IESE's strategy from its earliest days. Beginning in the late 1950s, IESE has sent members of its faculty to doctoratal programs in the U.S. and Europe, equipping its professors with an international mindset.[21] IESE has worked with Harvard Business School for nearly six decades, and in 1964, with the launch of the MBA program, it welcomed the first international students to its Barcelona campus.
IESE has helped to develop a network of 15 associated schools internationally, many of them in the developing world. It has formed long-term academic alliances with schools such as Stanford, MIT and CEIBS,[22] and opened campuses in São Paulo, Munich and New York. Its programs feature work and study opportunities around the globe, and its faculty, staff and students are of more than 100 nationalities.
Campuses[23]

The MBA programs and a wide range of Executive Education programs are offered on the Barcelona campus.
Madrid
Since its founding in 1974, IESE's Madrid campus has focused on Executive Education programs. The Executive MBA is also offered on the Madrid campus, along with a special program for public sector management. The campus, spread over 19,000m2, is located in a northeastern suburb of the Spanish capital.The campus is being expanded by the city's growing appeal to foreign students. A new program has also been introduced since August 2019, the Master in Management (MiM).[24]
