INSEAD Global Business School Celebrates SF Hub’s Fifth Anniversary

To mark the fifth anniversary of INSEAD, The Business School for the World’s SF-based North American Hub, on February 8 the school hosted a three-day conference at its San Francisco campus with the theme “The Future is Now: Bridging Business, Technology, and Humanity.” As one of the world’s top-ranked business schools, INSEAD established its first Americas location in San Francisco to foster connections between its global community and the cutting edge of tech innovation.

The San Francisco Hub, which began in February 2020 as the business school’s bold step into the heart of the technology sector, has resulted in the Hub becoming a thriving center for learning, networking and collaboration. After a welcome ceremony that included a lion dance performance by local students, conference attendees embarked on a dynamic learning program that brought together over 250 attendees from around the world, and 50-plus guest speakers, each outlining a bold vision to push the boundaries of business, technology and humanity. Over the last five years, the Hub has hosted a wide range of educational programs, plus the INSEAD Business Sustainability Series, which originated at the San Francisco location.
