EAE Research Institute for Business Trends

Research, Innovation and Trends Search

The EAE Research for Business Trends, at EAE Business School, aims to become a leading center nationally and internationally, promoting an interdisciplinary approach Business issues or topics. This interdisciplinary approach should allow us to research from a variety of perspectives, overcoming fragmented study of problems. This approach is increasingly necessary because the most interesting research topics are frequently at intersections of different disciplines contributing to both the academic community and society.

Moreover, by putting the emphasis on joint research, the RIBT.EAE aims to build a bridge among academia and business practitioners through new and advanced knowledge to create value with emphasis on Sustainability, Innovation and Intrapreneurship, Transformation and Value Creation.
