GBSN Beyond is the Global Business School Network’s flagship annual event for business school administrators, faculty, and leaders in industry and policy. The program is designed to get below the surface of the most pressing topics in our community and forge new connections across disciplines, institutions, and sectors.
GBSN Beyond 2026, From Potential to Progress: The Transformative Role of Business Schools, will take place October 26–28, 2026. This year, we gather in Bucharest, Romania, hosted by the Bucharest University of Economic Studies (ASE). Shaped by successive waves of political, economic, and social change, Bucharest offers a compelling setting in which to reflect on the role of management education in society and how business schools can shape enterprises, ecosystems, and talent for lasting prosperity.
