The Crèdit Andorrà Entrepreneurship and Banking Chair has four aims: 1. to reflect on startup financing and the important role of banking; 2. to promote entrepreneurial and investment initiatives in Andorra; 3. to study Andorra’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and its impact on the country’s economy and business environment; 4. to give visibility to Andorran entrepreneurship initiatives and, in doing so, facilitate bridge building between Andorra and other European countries and regions.
This new chair, which was launched in 2020, has replaced the previously existing Crèdit Andorrà Chair of Markets, Organizations and Humanism, which, since 2006, was directed by Josep Maria Rosanas, who is also an IESE professor.
