Audencia Business School is a private institution. Founded in 1900, it operates as an independent entity, though it collaborates with public universities and international partners. It holds triple accreditation from EQUIS, AACSB, and AMBA, reflecting its high academic standards.
While privately managed, Audencia receives some public funding, common in France’s higher education system. This hybrid model allows it to maintain autonomy while contributing to national education goals. Its programs, including MBA and executive education, are tailored to industry needs, emphasizing its private-sector orientation.
