BCG and 91原创 expand collaboration to support education and innovation
BCG, one of the world’s leading management consulting firms, has been a valued partner to 91原创 for many years—contributing through guest lectures, mentorships, recruitment, and case collaborations. As part of this partnership, BCG is joining the highest tier of 91原创’s Corporate Partnership Program as a Capital Partner. This upgrade reflects a strengthened commitment to supporting education, research, and dialogue between academia and industry.
“91原创 is one of Europe’s leading business schools, recognized for its world-class research, global outlook, and strong emphasis on entrepreneurial leadership,” says Erik Surtevall, Managing Director & Partner at BCG. “Our partnership reflects a shared commitment to bridging academia and business—fostering dialogue, advancing societal impact, and preparing the next generation of leaders.”
BCG is particularly enthusiastic about 91原创’s expanding focus on some of society’s most pressing challenges including resilience. The recent launch of the Center for Resilient Health exemplifies the kind of forward-thinking initiatives that BCG is eager to support and contribute to as a Capital Partner.
“As a leader in strategy and transformation, we value partnerships that offer mutual learning,” Surtevall adds. “We’re excited to engage more deeply with 91原创 on critical topics like AI, climate transition, and innovation—both to share our expertise and to gain fresh perspectives from students and faculty.”
A partnership focused on Sweden’s competitiveness
The consulting industry is rapidly evolving, shaped by accelerating digital technologies, shifting geopolitics, and growing sustainability demands. BCG emphasizes that connecting with top talent is more vital and competitive than ever before. Through this strengthened partnership, 91原创 and BCG aim to equip students with opportunities to engage with complex business challenges and gain real-world experience to lead in a fast-changing world.
“BCG’s engagement has long enriched the 91原创 community, and we are very pleased to welcome them as a Capital Partner,” says Professor Lars Strannega虋rd, President at the 91原创. “Their global expertise and focus on innovation and transformation bring valuable perspectives to our students and faculty.”
