Vanderbilt’s Americas MBA for Executives--a partnership with FIA in Brazil, ITAM in Mexico and Simon Fraser University in Canada--was our timely solution to a changing need by businesses we serve for executive education. These MNCs with strong ties to Nashville have a presence throughout the Americas. Two news pieces in the past 24 hours highlight the changing face of our business community:
1) Forbes just published an article listing Nashville, TN as the #3 expected growth city in the US. It mentions Nashville's growing Latino population and its pro business culture in general (which ties perfectly to the growth and entrepreneurial theme of Vanderbilt's host residency in the Americas MBA for Executives Program; namely courses in Innovations for Growth and Launching New Ventures for Growth and Sustainability—all of strong interest to our Americas cohort and partner schools. Further, Forbes wrote about Nashville: “The country music capital, with its low housing prices and pro-business environment, has experienced rapid growth in educated migrants, where it ranks an impressive fourth in terms of percentage growth. New ethnic groups, such as Latinos and Asians, have doubled in size over the past decade.”
2) The Nashville Business Journal just published an article with two quotes from corporate partners we serve—Bridgestone and Schneider Electric. The complete article is available at this link:
