The increasing importance of continuing education at HSG, andin consequence the rapidly growing demand for teaching and learning space, made necessary an expansion of the Executive Campus (WBZ), which had only been opened in 1995, thirteen years previously. The architect Bruno Gerosa was again commissioned to carry out this new WBZ project, resulting in an additional  lecture hall and a semi-circular campus wing with rooms for guests.

HSG Alumni House 2009

On 23 May 2008, the HSG Alumni House was inaugurated as part of the Executive Campus HSG. This striking building, which offers 54 stylish and high-quality single rooms spread over three floors, was financed by means of generous donations from numerous alumnae and alumni.
