MBA Study Mission to Singapore

From 21 to 25 April, 2025, we welcomed 40 students from the MBA Programme of the University of St.Gallen for their study mission to Singapore. Conducted by Prof. Dr. Stefan Morkoetter, this weeklong programme aimed at introducing students to different facets of Asia, covering topics such as doing business, business dynamics as well as entrepreneurship in Asia.

Theories covered in class were highly complemented with an immersive, hands-on experience. For example, a visit to the Singapore City Gallery introduced Singapore’s development strategy to students, as well as its plans for the future. Various company visits and guest lectures by local firms and MNCs provided real-world insight into the business and entrepreneurial ecosystem in Singapore. A highlight of the week was a half-day trip to Iskandar in Malaysia, where students had the opportunity to visit Unisteel’s operations allowing them to explore the topic of manufacturing in Asia more deeply.

It proved to be a successful and insightful week for all students and lecturers involved. Everyone celebrated their achievements and new-found knowledge with a farewell apéro at one of Singapore’s famous rooftop bars, enjoying stunning views of the city skyline to conclude a fantastic week.
