The new campus for Bologna Business School revitalizes a historic site in the hills of Bologna, combining restored heritage buildings with innovative, sustainable architecture. Designed to support flexible learning and social interaction, it features modern classrooms, outdoor terraces, and fluid pathways inspired by nature. A direct link to Villa Guastavillani ensures continuity with the past, while panoramic views, green spaces, and advanced energy solutions define a campus open to the world and rooted in its landscape.
