EGADE Business School at Tecnológico de Monterrey has been granted EQUIS (EFMD Quality Improvement System) reaccreditation for a new five-year period (2025–2029), reaffirming its position among the world’s top business schools.
Awarded by EFMD Global, EQUIS is one of the most prestigious international accreditations in business education. This rigorous system of continuous improvement evaluates schools across ten key dimensions, including governance, academic programs, students, faculty, research, internationalization, ethics, sustainability, and corporate engagement.
The reaccreditation highlights EGADE’s academic excellence and transformative capacity, as well as its commitment to developing responsible leaders, driving social impact, and pursuing global excellence.
“This reaccreditation reaffirms our commitment to staying at the forefront of global business education. It also strengthens the relevance of our purpose: to rethink the future of business and generate a positive impact on sustainable development. In today’s context, continuing our school’s path of innovation and transformation enables us to respond to the complexity of the changing global environment and the challenges facing organisations and society. This is a significant achievement that we proudly celebrate as part of our 30th anniversary, and it is made possible by the excellence and leadership of our students, alumni, faculty, and staff,” said Horacio Arredondo, Dean of EGADE Business School.
Currently, only 228 business schools in 45 countries hold EQUIS accreditation. Additionally, EGADE Business School has the Triple Crown of international accreditations (EQUIS, AACSB, and AMBA), a distinction earned by less than 1% of business schools worldwide.
This milestone adds to the celebrations of EGADE Business School’s 30th anniversary, reinforcing its leadership as a transformative institution in top-tier business education in Latin America.
