Geneva Business School Celebrates 30 Years of International Excellence at Its Graduation Ceremony in Barcelona
'Our students are entering a world marked by complex geopolitical challenges, a world in urgent need of a new style of leadership. Their education at Geneva Business School has instilled in them a deep understanding of what it means to lead with integrity on a global stage,' said Mrs. Nicola Jackman, Global Head of Academics at Geneva Business School, during her speech at the ceremony.
With campuses in Barcelona and Madrid, Geneva Business School brings Swiss excellence into a multicultural environment. Its learning model is based on project-based learning, where students apply real-world skills and tools to business projects from the very beginning of their studies. Furthermore, its faculty is made up of active professionals with experience in key sectors such as finance, marketing, consulting, and entrepreneurship, ensuring a curriculum closely aligned with real market challenges.
This year's graduation ceremony featured the special participation of two prominent figures in the business world, who shared with graduates their insights and advice on how to face their professional futures successfully. To guide students in this new chapter, Agustín Gómez, co-founder of Wallapop, and Francisco Campo, president of Planet Future Foundation, offered valuable advice aligned with the school's philosophy.
'These are the two simple things I want to share with my children—and with you—: first, knowing your greatest weakness will save you a lot of suffering. Second, discovering your natural talent will make it easier to find the places, projects, and people where you can shine,' said Agustín Gómez during his keynote speech.
Francisco Campo, for his part, emphasized the importance of driving a positive and sustainable impact in the business and social environment, calling on graduates to apply their knowledge with a forward-thinking, committed, and transformative vision. 'I'm honored to take part in this year's ceremony, inspiring the graduating students and helping them face their fears as they embark on this new stage of their lives,' Campo stated.
The more than 168 graduates of this year's class come from over 40 different nationalities, reflecting the global character of the institution. Geneva Business School has become a bridge between international talent and the European business landscape. In this sense, the impact of the Swiss model is particularly relevant: the school's importance within the Spanish context becomes clearer when analyzing the country's capacity to attract and retain talent. According to the latest World Talent Ranking from the Institute for Management Development (IMD), which evaluates 64 countries, Spain ranks 32nd, far behind Switzerland, which once again tops the list. This ranking clearly shows that while Spain continues to struggle in becoming a talent hub, the Swiss model stands out as a differentiator.
In this context, Geneva Business School offers a clear solution: international-quality education from Spain, with a Swiss methodology and direct connection to the market. A strategic combination to prepare leaders capable of operating in global environments without having to leave the country to access top-tier education.
In addition to classroom instruction, the school promotes close collaboration with companies and organizations, encouraging internships, expert-led workshops, and activities that connect the academic world with the realities of the labor market. This dynamic allows students to integrate from day one into demanding and constantly evolving environments.
Another key pillar of Geneva Business School is its commitment to developing talent through motivation, creativity, and entrepreneurship. Students are encouraged to explore their potential, discover their purpose, and apply their skills in real-life contexts. In line with this mission, the event featured contributions from leaders in social impact and tech entrepreneurship.
The school's mission goes beyond training graduates with technical competencies: it aims to have a positive impact on future business leaders by combining a rigorous methodology with personalized attention, high-quality resources, and a clear focus on professional success.

New Paint Facility at Bombardier's London Biggin Hill Service Centre Progressing to Plan as Structure Takes Shape
MONTREAL, July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bombardier announced today that the development of a new 51,000 sq. ft. paint facility at the London Biggin Hill Service Centre is progressing in earnest with several key processes completed, including ground stabilization and foundation work on the hangar. The hangar steel framework continues to progress and the cladding works have also commenced. Bromley and Biggin Hill Member of Parliament, Peter Fortune, visited the London Biggin Hill Service Centre on July 4, which provided him with a closer look at the exceptional aerospace expertise at the service centre and the development of its most recent expansion. Bombardier's new two-bay paint facility is expected to employ more than 50 skilled paint technicians and will be the perfect complement to the close to 250,000 sq. ft. service facility, which is fully equipped to perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, modifications and avionics installations for Bombardier Global , Challenger and Learjet aircraft. With a targeted completion date in the second half of 2026, the new paint facility will add to the centre's comprehensive service options, ensuring Bombardier's customers have a top-tier option for all their paint needs. 'The addition of the new paint facility at the London Biggin Hill Airport adds a sought-after service element to the already comprehensive offerings for our customers, ensuring they have a complete maintenance experience to help keep their aircraft in the air,' said Sander Podgoric, General Manager of the London Biggin Hill Service Centre. 'The London Biggin Hill Service Centre brings hundreds of high-paying jobs to Bromley and Biggin Hill County. We are delighted to showcase this important facility to Bromley and Biggin Hill Member of Parliament, Peter Fortune, building on our shared vision of producing high-paying jobs in the region.' 'It was incredible to see behind-the-scenes at Bombardier's state of the art engineering facility. It is a great benefit for the borough to have a multinational company like Bombardier set their European flagship service facility here,' said Peter Fortune, Bromley and Biggin Hill Member of Parliament. 'It is exciting to see their commitment to developing in Bromley with the construction of their new paint facility, creating more local jobs and opportunities, and speaks volumes for the fantastic job that London Biggin Hill Airport does attracting inward investment to the region.' Inaugurated in 2017 and expanded in 2022 to nearly 250,000 sq. ft., the Bombardier Biggin Hill service centre serves as an important economic driver at the London Biggin Hill Airport and the London Borough of Bromley. It is a shining example of how Bombardier continues to enhance the accessibility of its OEM expertise for customers worldwide, redefining its position as a leader in service and support capabilities. The addition of the new paint facility isn't the only new development at the service centre.. In 2024, Bombardier and F/LIST announced the opening of a contemporary 700-sq. ft. material lounge to provide customers with access to the largest, most comprehensive portfolio of interior materials housed at one of its international service centres. Bombardier also announced last year the addition of more than 3,000 solar panels on the roof of the service centre and a new line maintenance station at the nearby Farnborough Airport providing light scheduled and unscheduled maintenance as well as Aircraft on Ground (AOG) support.
