philosophy

To achieve our mission, we bridge the gap between academia and practice. We do this by creating a learning environment which connects students and young professionals with academic experts, seasoned practitioners, and industry leaders.

In a complex and uncertain world, we see these connections as necessary to build a creative and courageous cadre of future leaders in commodity trading and supply chains.

Our expertise

We create custom learning experiences for groups with various levels of experience, by combining thematic expertise and knowledge delivery.

Our network and Associated Fellows, who are current and former industry leaders, bring their latest insights of the inner workings of commodity trading. This is curated by our team’s expertise in curriculum design to offer cutting-edge knowledge in a creative and engaging way.
