We are proud to share that on March 7, 2025, the shareholders of IEDC - Bled School of Management, approved (with 97% support) a capital increase of €1 million. This strategic investment, backed by top industry players, will drive the implementation of key priorities for 2025 and beyond.
A key project includes completing over 550 sqm of new facilities at the TVD-Partizan premises. This will significantly enhance IEDC’s capacity to deliver innovative programs and host global business events, further solidifying its role as a hub for leadership development.
The Supervisory Board also endorsed the business plan for 2025–2027, highlighting encouraging enrolment projections for the 2025/26 MBA generation. Additional plans include introducing cutting-edge programs in AI management, welcoming a new generation of professors, and establishing high-impact SEE-EU-USA partnerships like the “Future 500” initiative, developed in collaboration with the Atlantic Council.
Prof. dr. Stjepan Orešković, President of the Supervisory Board of IEDC, emphasized the importance of these developments: "This is a critical juncture for IEDC. The capital increase and the strategic partnerships we are fostering underscore our dedication to upholding IEDC’s status as a frontrunner in leadership education and innovation, which was established by Professor Danica Purg, Dean of the School. With the modern facilities and new partnerships, we are laying the groundwork for a prosperous future for the school, its alumni, current and future students, and shareholders and corporate partners."
Prof. dr. Mislav Ante Omazić, new President of the Management Board of IEDC – Bled School of Management, echoed this optimism: "IEDC’s strength lies in its ability to innovate and lead. The new facilities, programs, and strategic initiatives are a testament to our dedication to cultivating the next generation of leaders and driving transformation across Europe and beyond. IEDC is more than a school; it is a catalyst for global innovation and a transformative force for individuals, organizations, and societies. We take immense pride in our vibrant Alumni community, which has been central to our success, and we plan to strengthen further their role and engagement in shaping the School's future."
With these bold initiatives, our school starts a new era of empowering leaders, advancing management practices, and serving as a beacon of excellence in business education and collaboration.
