Católica Porto Business School was recently recognised as an institutional Partner of GRLI - Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative, an international multisectoral community focused on boosting the development of globally responsible leadership and practices.

Católica Porto Business School was already a member of this community. And one of seven academic partners involved in developing the “Globally Responsible Leadership for Sustainable Transformation”, an international postgraduate programme recently recognised by the Financial Times in the Responsible Business Education Awards.

This recognition as an institutional Partner is particularly relevant for João Pinto, Dean of Católica Porto Business School: "The Católica Porto Business School joins an exclusive group of just 25 business schools worldwide with a presence in this community". This strengthening of connection results “from our school's strong strategic and even operational commitment at various levels. Ultimately, it is aligned with our mission: developing professionals for a global, sustainable, and ethical society, advancing knowledge in management and economics through innovation with impact, connections to practice and adoption of a global mentality.”
