Inauguration Global IBR MBA in Israel

In the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce in Tel Aviv, IBR opened admissions to the IBR Global MBA for Israel. His Excellency the Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany Dr. Dr. h.c. Harald Kindermann appreciated the initiative of the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce to promote this MBA programme in Israel. According to him, Israeli-German relations have never been better. Such an MBA programme would allow also the younger generation to actively participate in the friendship between both countries.

The FICC invited Professor Prabhu Guptara as the key note speaker for the event. Vividly, he took the audience to examine reasons of the present financial crisis in order to understand what to still expect for the global economy and Israel in particular. The audience received with great appreciation his advise to reflect the phenomenon that Israel as a country is a brand, but the country itself has not managed to create global brands. As the greatest value would be created by the top three brands in a particular market, he suggested that it might be time to encourage also Israeli entrepreneurs to start thinking about creating global brands.
