ESADE was founded by the Society of Jesus in 1958 in Barcelona. Initially it was located in Passatge de Josep Llovera, in Sant Gervasi, and in 1965 it moved to its current campus, in Pedralbes. The Barcelona campus has three buildings: on Avinguda de Pedralbes, Carrer de Marquès de Mulhacén and Avinguda d’Esplugues.
An institution dating back more than 50 years
The ESADE business school is an institution in the city. The idea began to take shape in 1954, at the hands of a group of Catalan entrepreneurs and professionals who wanted to found a university centre dedicated to research. An agreement with the Jesuits allowed them to set up the school in 1958, which began by offering degrees in business science. The centre kept expanding and in 1964 it opened its first MBA programme. In 1969 it established the first European Documentation Centre in Spain. In 2001 it opened its Madrid campus, and in 2003, set up another in Buenos Aires. 2009 saw the inauguration of the ESADE Sant Cugat Creapolis campus. Since 1995, the centre has been part of Ramon Llull University.
The pedralbes campus
ESADE’s Barcelona campus, with around 30,000 square metres, is located in the Pedralbes neighbourhood, very close to the university zone on Avinguda de la Diagonal. The school has a further campus in the neighbouring town of Sant Cugat, as well as in Madrid and Buenos Aires. In total there are 13,000 students at the centres.
