The BI Norwegian School of Management trained China’s Olympic Committee
The BI Norwegian Business School and Fudan School of Management launched a tailor-made MBA programme for members of China’s Olympic Committee (COC). The MBA programme was an important part of the COC’s preparations for the Olympic Games in Beijing in the summer of 2008. The programme had 40 participants and more than half were members of the COC. The remainder were captains of industry in China’s rapidly growing sports industry. BI was thus one of the very few Nordic players to deliver competence for staging the Olympic Games in China.
