In this joint programme with the Graduate School of Business, we have combined all our experience, expertise, and accumulated knowledge. Students can therefore learn from the advancements made over the years in various areas by the most innovative retailers, including, of course, X5, as the industry leader. We, in turn, are highly interested in early-career specialists, which is why we invest in their development from the very beginning.’
