One hundred fifty-three of the highest performing EGADE Business School students from the Class of 2020 were distinguished as new members of the prestigious international honor society Beta Gamma Sigma (BGS).

With these students, who completed their graduate studies in Mexico City, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Querétaro and Lima, the EGADE Business School BGS Chapter now has a total of 558 lifelong members across the world.

Ignacio de la Vega, Dean of EGADE Business School and the Tec School of Business presided over the virtual induction ceremony.

“I would like to invite you to accept the commitment you have taken on as appointed members of Beta Gamma Sigma, and to fulfill it from your positions as business leaders through the creation of shared value for the transformation of society,” De la Vega stated.

Juan Antonio Enciso, Chapter Advisor of the EGADE Business School BGS chapter, took the pledge from the new members.

The BGS society, founded in 1913, has more than 600 chapters across the world and 875 thousand members from over 190 countries.

BGS members are recognized as “best in business”, since they belong exclusively to AACSB-accredited institutions, which represent the top 5% of business schools worldwide.

Being a member of BGS is the highest recognition of academic excellence a graduate business student can receive, since only the top 20% of graduate students in a business school, and 100 % of doctoral candidates, are admitted.

In September, the EGADE Business School Chapter was recognized for the second consecutive year in the BGS Chapter Honor Roll program, on this occasion with the Honors award for its achievements during the 2019-2020 academic year.
