— MIT SLOAN COLLABORATION

Developing Principled, Transformative Leaders in Asia and Beyond

Established through a partnership with MIT Sloan, ASB addresses Asia’s demand for skilled talent by merging regional ambition with MIT Sloan’s standards. This collaboration shapes change-makers and entrepreneurs, with ASB’s acclaimed MBA program seamlessly integrating MIT Sloan’s Action Learning pedagogy for widespread recognition.
