Católica Porto Business School continues to consolidate its presence on the international stage, strengthening strategic partnerships in India. The school’s Dean, João Pinto, recently visited the country to deepen collaborations with Indian academic institutions and businesses, fostering opportunities for student exchange, research, and discussions on globally relevant topics.
The visit included the expansion of relations with SPJIMR SP Jain Institute of Management & Research, ranked as the best management school in India by the Financial Times Master’s in Management (FT MIM). This strengthened collaboration aims to create more opportunities for student exchange and joint research projects, further enhancing Católica Porto Business School’s global impact.
During his stay, João Pinto was a keynote speaker at TASIC 2025: International Technology and Societal Impact Conference, where he addressed the importance of sustainable finance in creating long-term economic value. The event brought together academic experts, chief innovation officers, CSR leaders, policymakers, and innovative students, providing a platform for discussions on global challenges and solutions.
The Católica Porto Business School Dean also participated in a Think Tank on "Digital Public Information and Value Creation" with top executives from Indian companies. The discussion focused on digital inclusion models, economic sustainability, and innovation, reinforcing the school’s commitment to generating relevant and applicable knowledge on a global scale.
"This visit to India was a significant milestone for Católica Porto Business School, allowing us to strengthen strategic relationships and create new opportunities for our students and researchers. Knowledge exchange and international collaboration are fundamental to shaping leaders capable of tackling future global challenges," said João Pinto.
With this strengthening of global ties, Católica Porto Business School continues to position itself as a leading business school, committed to internationalisation and global impact.
