Recently established compared to its peers, Judge Business School is on a rapid trajectory of growth. It supports and encourages leadership and entrepreneurship through a wide range of programmes - from informal networking opportunities for undergraduates to intensive courses for mid-career executives. Students undertake in-company projects in many countries with an increasing number focusing on India. The Centre for India & Global Business acts as a platform for research and engagement with key partners in industry, academia and policy in India, the UK and across the world. Its primary focus is to understand, promote, and engage with innovators on India's leading role in the global knowledge economy. The Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning (CfEL) aims to spread the spirit of enterprise to international audiences through the delivery of educational activities that inspire and build skills in the practice of entrepreneurship. Flagship programmes include:

  • Ignite - an intensive, one week programme attracting international delegates including many from Indian organisations such as Tata Ryerson Ltd, the Indian Institute of Technology Madras and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII)
  • The Advanced Diploma in Entrepreneurship - a part-time programme, delivered mainly online, offering entrepreneurial individuals across the globe the opportunity to gain a recognised qualification at the same time as being actively supported in the pursuit of a business enterprise.
