🤖 Will business schools still matter in an AI-powered future?

As AI transforms how knowledge is accessed and applied, business schools face important questions about the future of teaching, learning and the MBA.

At the AMBA & BGA Asia Pacific Deans and Directors Conference 2026, Jozef Konings, Dean of Nazarbayev University Graduate School of Business, and Ithai Stern, Professor of Strategy at INSEAD, will explore these challenges in their session, 'Will Business Schools Still Matter? AI and the Future of the MBA'.

The session will showcase an AI-powered immersive case study in which students interact with virtual stakeholders, before examining the wider potential of personalised learning, simulations and virtual reality.

Delegates will consider what these developments mean for curriculum design, teaching methods and future investment in faculty.

📍 That's a wrap in Lisbon!

Yesterday marked the conclusion of our AMBA & BGA Programme Excellence Conference and Accreditation Conference 2026, bringing together business school leaders for a final day of insightful discussions, shared learning and valuable connections.

🎓 At the Programme Excellence Conference, discussions explored how business schools can adapt to changing expectations, strengthen lifelong learning and develop future-ready programmes.

Highlights included Clark Boyd examining how business simulations can develop business judgement in an AI-shaped world, while Maria Gallo explored the strategic role of alumni engagement throughout the student lifecycle.

🌍 At the Accreditation Conference, delegates explored practical approaches to managing multiple accreditations and embedding a culture of continuous improvement.

Carolyn Magnani and Craig Robinson shared perspectives on managing multiple accreditation requirements, while Sarah Vaughan explored how business schools can engage faculty, staff and students in building a school-wide accreditation culture.

Across both conferences, the conversations reinforced the importance of collaboration, innovation and continuous improvement in shaping the future of business education.

A huge thank you to our speakers, delegates, sponsors and partners for making this year's conferences such a success!
