Entrepreneurship Scholarship — Course / Training

IESE Business School offers the Entrepreneurship Scholarship for participants in its Advanced Management Program and Program for Management Development. It supports entrepreneurs and innovators whose work can create economic or social value.

The AMP is a seven-month, in-person program across Madrid, Barcelona and Munich. The PMD is a five-month hybrid program combining residential modules in Barcelona with online study.

Benefits & funding

Two awards are available in every AMP or PMD edition.
Each award covers up to 15% of tuition.
The published program fees are €46,000 for AMP, €53,200 for AMP with the optional module, and €31,500 for PMD; IESE does not list other costs as covered by this scholarship.

Eligibility

Applicants must first be admitted to either AMP or PMD and must submit the scholarship application for that chosen program.
Candidates who are fully or partially sponsored by their employer are not eligible.
The scholarship is intended for entrepreneurs and innovators who can create economic or social value; the wider scholarship pool serves candidates with financial restrictions and potential for global business impact.
AMP is designed for C-suite and senior executives, while PMD is aimed at experienced managers, directors, newly appointed general managers and entrepreneurs with at least five years of managerial experience.
IESE states no nationality, residence, degree, gender or age restriction for this scholarship.
