Introduction
In 1995, the European Institute for Advanced Studies in Management launched its institutional members’ network, EIASM’s Academic Council. The main purpose of this initiative was to enable closer ties with those institutions that gain from and contribute most to the activities of EIASM, as well as to offer a forum for the exchange of information between member institutions. Another incentive to formalising the institutional membership structure was to provide an ongoing means of financial support for the annual activities of EIASM (which is a not-for-profit organisation). On average, between 70 and 80 universities, research institutes or business schools are members of EIASM’s Academic Council, representing some 20 European countries.
