The Pilkington Ratiu Business School



The Pilkington Ratiu Business School is unique and has been created in order to bring top academics from around the world to the region. Our faculty is drawn from some of the most prestigious schools including Harvard, INSEAD, Columbia and Wharton. Their inspiring passion for teaching and diversity in cultural backgrounds will guarantee a rich intellectual experience.

The Pilkington Ratiu Business School offers a rare opportunity for participants to study the most compelling issues in today’s complicated world. With the experience and insights gained through our 18 months EMBA program, participants will develop and polish the skills needed in multinational settings, increase their value to innovative organizations worldwide and, not least, maximize their personal contribution to society and the future. The school also focuses heavily on financial and strategy skills, which are essential for business success.

In addition to learning from faculty, our students will learn from the company project integrated into the curriculum, from the various top business speakers who are invited to each module, and from each other.

We look forward to welcoming you to our network, as the first pioneers of an innovative venture.

Our mission is to construct a leading regional business school

We have embarked on a mission to construct a leading regional business school, based in Bucharest, Romania. The Ratiu Family and the Pilkington family, as initiators, are calling on all those interested to coalesce around this bold and innovative project. Whilst both families trace their history to 1200, the business school is about the future of this part of the world, Eastern Europe, the Community of Independent States and partially the Middle East. This area has an urgent need for a business school which embraces strong ethical principles and social responsibility, but is at the same time in the geographically accessible location.

Academic partnerships with top business schools from Europe and US

Academically, we have assembled a strong line-up of courses, beginning with an Executive MBA starting in January 2012 and will continue with a full-time MBA beginning in January of 2014. We have already confirmed participation of a faculty member of Harvard Business School, Mr. Andrei Hagiu, who will teach Strategy and Technology. We have also signed an academic partnership with Ashridge College, the leading UK business school. We are also benefitting from support of the World Bank in Romania, through the participation of the chief economist, Mr. Catalin Pauna, who will be teaching the managerial economics course. Finally, and crucially, we have secured a partnership with INSEAD which will see several professors teach key courses within the EMBA in Bucharest.

Corporate support from multinationals and chambers of commerce in Romania

At corporate level, we are assembling behind the project a coalition of chambers of commerce in Romania and a very strong support structure in the board, which is London-based. The British Romanian Chamber of Commerce will be present through Lord Lamont, the Honorary Chairman, who joins the board as honorary member and Mrs. Alexandra Gatej, the president of American Chamber of Commerce in Romania, who is also a strong supporter of the project. We are approaching select multinationals who want to participate in the project by sending one of their top talents to join this project
