We can prepare our students for the labour market competitively if we build close partnerships with the most successful and significant companies. We place a high priority on actively integrating market knowledge into our programs and creating an active relationship between our students and their future employers, for the benefit of both parties. Stratis is one of those successful, decisive companies that share their experiences and take a socially responsible part in increasing the knowledge of new generations. Thanks to our cooperation, Stratis professionals can easily learn about the latest findings in business and management science from Corvinus researchers, which can help them increase their business efficiency.

 – said Bruno van Pottelsberghe, President and Rector of Corvinus University of Budapest regarding the agreement concluded.  

Within the framework of strategic cooperation, we have targeted areas where we can best pass on our experience to students. In the subject Project Management in Data Science we share with students the testimonies of our practical experience in managing projects; for the Data Wrangling seminars, we are compiling a practical task in which students can apply their knowledge acquired so far when solving a business problem

– said Zoltán Bíró, Managing Partner and CEO of Stratis in connection with the signing.

In recent years, Corvinus has entered into strategic partnerships with more than ten major domestic and multinational companies. The aim of the university is to continuously expand its economic and social network and to channel the latest market knowledge into education.
