Switzerland is known for many things: precision, quality, innovation, and expensive education. But at HBS Helvetic Business School, we believe quality business education shouldn't be a luxury. Our mission is clear: make top-tier Swiss education affordable and accessible without compromising what matters most — the learning experience.

Challenging the status quo

For many years, business education in Switzerland has been associated with prestige and excellence. While this model has produced strong outcomes, it often comes with high tuition fees and added costs that not every student can afford. At HBS, we offer an alternative for those seeking the same commitment to quality education, but in a more accessible and cost-conscious format.

We're disrupting the norm by focusing on what truly makes a business school great: exceptional teaching, strong industry connections, and relevant, future-ready programs. Everything else? We keep it lean.

The power of a shared ecosystem

HBS is part of a dynamic group of Swiss institutions. This structure gives us a unique advantage. We share key resources across campuses, reduce overhead costs, and unlock economies of scale. From digital infrastructure and administrative systems to strategic partnerships, our group model allows us to invest in education instead of extras.

This means:

Lower tuition fees without hidden costs
Focused investment in high-quality faculty and program content
Streamlined operations that benefit from group-wide support

What we don’t do (on purpose)

We don’t overload our students with unnecessary fees.
We don’t follow outdated education models.
Instead, we prioritize flexibility, practical learning, and international perspectives, delivered in a smart, cost-conscious way.

A smart investment for a global future

Our students get the same academic rigor, international exposure, and real-world preparation you'd expect from a Swiss business school. But without the luxury price tag. We offer dual degrees, certifications, and practical programs designed to help students succeed in business, not just in theory, but in practice.

The future of business education is lean. It starts here.

We’re proud to be part of a movement toward more accessible, more relevant, and more efficient business education. If you're ready to invest in your future, not in overpriced tuition, HBS is here to offer you the smart alternative.
