About CBS
Copenhagen Business School (CBS) and the Department of Marketing welcome all delegates to the 39th EMAC conference which will take place at Solbjerg Plads, the central main building of the CBS campus.
CBS is one of the largest business schools in Europe with more than 16,000 students and almost 1000 staff members. CBS was established in 1917 and became integrated as an institution of higher education in the Danish education system in 1965. To accommodate the steady growth in research and education activities CBS has over the course of time developed a beautiful Campus. It covers several modern buildings designed by internationally known architects as well as the old Royal Porcelain Factory buildings that have been converted and completely refurbished for the use of research and education.

International Orientation with Regional Anchoring
CBS regards itself as a European university. In addition to being one of the largest business schools in Europe it strives to be among the top business schools in Europe. The research and teaching is structured in line with international standards, and the level of quality is measured in comparison with foreign top universities.
CBS has participated in international research forums, bilateral exchange agreements for both students and faculty, and strategic alliances for several decades. It is a tradition which the school is proud of. CBS has earned international recognition and accreditation as a result of the fruitful efforts of its personnel and students alike.
CBS is EQUIS and AMBA accredited, the Danish member of CEMS and partner in PIM.


Partnership with the Business Community
Co-operation with Danish and foreign business communities is of very high priority. CBS develops study programs that meet the needs of business executives and employees for lifelong learning. CBS also participates in application-orientated research collaboration in connection with internationally-oriented basic research. This includes joint research projects, the CBS Partnership Programs and the increasing number of new business research centres that perform research in collaboration with enterprises and organizations.
