A class of their ownEach year, a select group of people are chosen to take the TRIUM Global EMBA programme. These are successful people, but also people who know they can achieve more. They are highly knowledgeable, but they want their opinions challenged. They are independent, but appreciate the enormous value they get from their peer network. 

Individually, they are uniquely positioned to shape the business world of the future. Collectively, they are a class of their own.
