Industry-Specific Solutions
Automotive
The transformation of the automotive industry is reshaping Sino-German business relations. We support automotive companies and suppliers in areas such as strategy, leadership, transformation, innovation, finance, sustainability, supply-chain challenges and intercultural management.
Real Estate
From investment and financing to valuation, sustainability and regulation, our programmes address the key challenges facing real estate investors, developers and financial institutions. Specific modules can also focus on international real estate investment and Sino-German market perspectives.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure projects combine long-term investment, complex financing structures, regulation and multiple stakeholder interests. Our programmes can address infrastructure finance, project finance, investment analysis, sustainability, risk management and the management of large-scale projects.
Finance & Banking
As one of Europe’s leading business schools with strong roots in the financial sector, Frankfurt School offers extensive expertise in banking and financial services. Programmes can cover corporate finance, risk management, banking regulation, compliance, sustainable finance, capital markets, digital finance and strategic transformation.
There is no standard format for a customised programme. Each programme is designed around your organisation’s specific objectives, business context and stage of development in Europe.
Whether you are preparing to enter the European market, establishing your operations, localising and scaling your business, or moving towards the next stage of strategic development, we focus on the capabilities your leaders and teams need at that particular point in your journey.
Depending on your objectives, we can develop anything from a focused one- or two-day executive workshop to a multi-module development programme extending over several months.
Programmes may combine:
- Faculty input and expert sessions
- Case studies and simulations
- Workshops and group projects
- Company-specific business challenges
- Executive coaching
- Networking and peer exchange
- Online and face-to-face learning
Programmes can be delivered in Germany, China or other international locations.
Where appropriate, customised programmes can be complemented by selected external perspectives and learning experiences. These may include visits to institutions, innovation hubs, start-up ecosystems or other organisations, as well as exchanges with practitioners and industry experts.
Such elements are selected based on the programme objectives, participant profile and local opportunities. Rather than offering a standard schedule of company visits, we focus on creating relevant access to the German and European business, regulatory and innovation environment.
The Sino-German Centre brings together Frankfurt School’s academic and industry expertise with a deep understanding of the economic, institutional and cultural relationships between China and Germany.
This enables us to develop programmes that go beyond generic international management training. Participants gain relevant knowledge, practical tools and the cross-cultural perspective required to operate effectively in both markets.
Every customised programme starts with your organisation’s objectives.
Talk to us about your strategic priorities, target group and development needs. Together, we will design a programme that creates measurable value for your organisation and your people.
