Maastricht School of Management is a meeting place for global, local and regional business and government decision-makers. Last month we played host to the Model European Parliament, this month to the small and medium enterprise sector in the Netherland’s Limburg Province. And as always we welcomed groups of decision-makers and researchers from further afield: delegations from Bangladesh, Namibia and Indonesia, among others, visited. Our faculty travelled to our various partners’ campuses to teach, and to Palestine to promote innovation in agriculture. Mentioning innovation: our Corvers-endowed Chair in Innovation Procurement is continuing to scale up its activities, reflecting the growing need in the public sector to promote and manage innovation.
