On September 9, the EGADE Business School—Tecnológico de Monterrey community inaugurated its new spaces, designed to foster collaboration, creativity, and the exchange of ideas within its community.
Horacio Arredondo, dean of EGADE Business School; Eva Guerra, academic associate dean of EGADE Business School; Juan Pablo Murra, rector for Higher Education of Tecnológico de Monterrey; Víctor Gutiérrez, rector of Operations of Tecnológico de Monterrey; and Mario Adrián Flores, vice-president of the Monterrey Region of Tecnológico de Monterrey, led the ribbon-cutting in the Learning Commons, located on the first floor of the Monterrey site, a flexible space for individual and collaborative study.
"With these spaces, we are continuing to reaffirm our commitment to rethinking the future of business to impact sustainable development in Latin America. I am certain that transformative ideas will emerge here, contributing to a bright future for our society," Arredondo stressed during his speech.
After the ceremony, the attendees went to the EXATEC Connect & Career Hub on the second floor, where Richard Cotler, president of the EXATEC EGADE Association, toasted the community’s latest achievements. This space, designed for the EXATEC EGADE community, includes a newly renovated library and areas for networking and professional development.
Apart from the Learning Commons and the EXATEC Connect & Career Hub, the event also presented the new space for Admissions & Registrar Services, located on the first floor and designed to facilitate the admission and academic management processes.
During the opening ceremony, the EGADE community had the opportunity to view the work “Todos en conexión”, by visual artist Jorge Cejudo, "el Cejas", inspired by the iconic mural on the Tec Administrative Building, "El triunfo de la cultura", by Jorge González Camarena.
The event also welcomed "Abstracción en la Colección de Arte, A.C.", an exhibition that forms part of Tec’s Cultural Heritage and that marks the start of a new artistic tradition at EGADE.
Through this inauguration, EGADE Business School reinforces its commitment to growth and innovation, establishing spaces designed to strengthen interaction, learning, and positive impact in its community's academic and professional environment.
