The Nova School of Business & Economics (Nova School of Business & Economics or Nova SBE) has reached the top 10 in the latest Financial Times ranking for executive education, marking its highest position to date. Portugal now has six institutions featured in the global list, with the Católica Porto Business School making its debut this year.

Context & Explainers

Nova SBE (Nova School of Business and Economics) is the business school of Universidade Nova de Lisboa, based in Carcavelos; it has a modern campus opened in 2018 and is one of Portugal’s leading business schools. Its surveys and research—like the healthcare access study cited in the news—are often used in public policy debates, so expats will see Nova SBE data quoted in media and policy discussions.
