Beyond Shanghai, CEIBS operates across a network of campuses in Beijing and Shenzhen (China), Zurich (Switzerland), and Accra (Ghana), each serving a distinct strategic purpose. 

  1. Beijing provides access to China's political and financial centre, where government institutions, state-owned enterprises, and major financial organisations are concentrated. This environment is particularly relevant for understanding policy, regulation, and large-scale corporate decision-making.
  2. Shenzhen places CEIBS within one of China's leading technology and innovation hubs, home to major companies in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, and digital services. It offers exposure to entrepreneurship, start-ups, and rapidly evolving business models.
  3. Zurich serves as CEIBS' European base, supporting connections with European businesses, alumni, and institutions. It reinforces the school's China–Europe positioning and provides a platform for engagement with European markets and professionals.
  4. Accra reflects CEIBS' focus on China–Africa business relations, offering insight into emerging markets and the growing economic ties between China and African economies.

These locations form an integrated network that supports alumni engagement, executive education, and regional business connections, while also extending the school's reach into key global markets.

For students, this network enhances learning and career mobility, providing access to different business environments, strengthening international connections, and reinforcing CEIBS' positioning as a school operating across multiple economic regions rather than within a single market.
