SKOLKOVO
Moskow, Russia
Business School
Entrepreneurial Academics
Skolkovo is a newly-established business school in Moscow,
Russia. The school is privately funded and is a priority
project of the Russian government. Our aim is to grow
entrepreneurial leaders for fast-moving economies and to
become the knowledge center on leading and managing change in
those economies. Our program portfolio consists of Executive
Education, an EMBA program and an unique FT MBA which we will
roll out in September 2009. We currently have strategic
partnerships with NES (Russia's leading economics institute)
and MIT's Sloan School.
JOB QUALIFICATIONS:
To realize this exciting venture, we are looking for
entrepreneurial academics who are thought leaders and have a
research agenda (or are willing to develop one) around
critical management issues in fast-moving economies such as
the ones of India, China and Russia. We are particularly
looking for faculty with an expertise in entrepreneurial
leadership, entrepreneurship, project management, sustainable
development and health care management in new, emerging
economies. We are also looking for leading academics who are
interested in spending sabbatical time with us in Moscow. Our
current research infrastructure includes an emerging market
think tank with a presence in Beijing and Moscow (and, by the
end of the year, Delhi) and an infrastructure research
institute.
The school is currently housed in the center of Moscow but
will move to a state-of-the-art facility in Skolkovo at the
outskirts of Moscow in the end of 2009.
