t was on 24 April 2018 that the UNICON board, meeting at BI Norwegian Business School in Oslo, Norway, welcomed Nova School of Business and Economics as an associate member of this prestigious global network of Executive Education schools.

Nova SBE is one of only two Portuguese schools to join this network, together with PBS. Executive Education is thus allied to schools such as Harvard, IMD, INSEAD or Wharton - a development that reinforces the school's ambition and excellence.

"Being accepted at UNICON is a recognition by the best of the work and quality that Nova has developed. On theother hand, being among the best allows us to learn from them, establish partnerships and have access to knowledge that we bring for the benefit of companies and executives in Portugal," argues LuĂ­s Rodrigues, CEO of Nova SBE Executive Education, who will serve as the school's main representative within the community.
