Munich Business Lounge (MBL) – the magazine of the HM Business School

Munich Business Lounge: A magazine by people for people with links to the HMBS!

Why ‘Munich Business Lounge’? The name reflects our aim: Munich as the cosmopolitan home of our university, ‘business’ as an umbrella term for the subjects taught at HMBS, and the ‘lounge’ as a meeting place.

Through our specialist magazines, we aim to give you a better understanding of our Business School and the latest topics in business administration. As well as articles on current faculty news, we report on all key areas of activity: teaching, research and industry partnerships, and showcase successful final-year projects and dissertations covering a wide range of topics. We hope that our magazine will provide you with food for thought and encourage you to engage with us.

Please note that these documents are only available in German. You may wish to use a translation tool to view them in your preferred language. If you have any questions, please contact Jessica Herrmann .
