Sumaq Alliance

8 Business Schools
More than 1,200 professors and specialists from different sectors
100.000 alumni in more than 95 countries
The Sumaq Alliance comprises eight leading business schools in Spanish and Portuguese-speaking markets. Sumaq offers the experience of member schools in the field of executive education, a formidable resource pool (over 1,200 professors and specialists from different sectors spread over 11 campus situated in different countries) and an extensive knowledge of business environments in Europe and Latin America. The Alliance is a proactive response to the current needs of business organisations operating in a global environment.

The underlying philosophy of Sumaq is that the professional development needs of large multinationals require highly effective learning processes that enable groups of executives in different countries to work together without having to leave their places of work and residence. Sumaq programmes combine presential training with online interaction using new technologies, thus enabling participants to combine day to day work with a demanding training programme.

Changes in the environment, the speed at which knowledge is renewed and the geographical scope of operations of large firms mean that executive education is now an excellent vehicle for corporate culture, transmitting the mission and values of a company to the entire organisation.

Taking a joint evaluation as a base, we design a program tailored to meet the specific training needs of each client. The synergies generated by our network of schools mean that Sumaq can offer a top-level international faculty with a wide range of experience in the world of business. Our in-depth knowledge of all the markets in which we operate produces differentiated programmes that are developed using the same base but adapted to local realities.

The use of technologies permits us to reach and train a large number of people, transcending geographical and time-zone constraints to enable each individual to follow the programme at his/her convenience.

Furthermore, given that executive training is a continuous process that should evolve in lockstep with the client, we feel that Sumaq, as a world alliance, is designed to provide an effective, rapid response that will meet the specific needs our clients might have throughout their career.

Continuous training constitutes the main axis of Sumaq’s activities. The flexibility of our programmes means that every one of them offers a high degree of added value, and each student can follow the course at every stage of his/her career, regardless of his/her place of residence or work.

This new approach is the result of the excellent relations built up among the schools and their current clients, which facilitate a fine-tuned analysis of the training needs of their executives. This tradition of academic excellence is what led us to create Sumaq, the largest global Alliance of Business Schools.

Sumaq can offer quality training thanks to a select group of business schools that enjoy great prestige in the global business arena. Our main objective is to become an international point of reference for the development of a new generation of global leaders. Strong investment in learning technologies, the development of innovative content and an awareness of cultural and socio-economic diversity in different markets are what make Sumaq, and the services it offers, unique.
