The Business School relies on strong and ongoing support from alumni, friends, corporations and foundations to achieve its wider objectives. We are grateful to all past, present and future donors and sponsors.

Philanthropic giving is integral to the future growth and development of the Business School and due largely to the generous donations from supportive individuals, public and private sector organisations and our corporate partners, we have made considerable progress. On this page we acknowledge our major donors.
