HSG Advisory Board

Since 2007, the HSG Advisory Board has supported the University of St.Gallen (HSG) in strategic issues and university projects.

On the HSG Advisory Board, 13 personalities are committed to fostering the strategic development of the University of St.Gallen (HSG) on a voluntary basis. With their backgrounds in business, academia and civil society, the Advisory Board members represent thought and practice leadership. As a sounding board for the university leadership, they reflect on relevant HSG projects from an external, both national and international perspective, and enrich the strategy process with valuable impulses. They stimulate innovations in research, teaching and practice transfer. 

The critical and constructive support by the Advisory Board contributes to tackling the challenges facing HSG as a regionally anchored and internationally oriented business university. This close connection to business and civil society benefits not least our students, for whom HSG opens up attractive careers. 

The Advisory Board meets once a year. The Advisory Board members are appointed by the University Council on the recommendation of the Rector and the President of HSG Alumni.
