Universities and their Business Schools play an important role in facilitating collaborations between academia, industry, government, and community stakeholders. By serving as dynamic hubs that bring together diverse perspectives and expertise, Business Schools drive innovation, tackle complex societal challenges, and facilitate knowledge exchange that benefits all involved. York Business School at York St John University has been doing just that.
Since its launch in 2016, York Business School has grown rapidly and is now responsible for almost one third of the students at York St John University. We are proud to deliver high-quality education, degree apprenticeship programmes, research, and knowledge exchange in partnership with organisations across the region and beyond. We are a Business School at the heart of York and North Yorkshire, but with a global perspective and are committed to working collaboratively. Our mission is to inspire the next generation of business leaders who can meet today’s challenges with integrity, innovation, and a commitment to sustainability.

As one of the fastest-growing business schools in the UK, we have strong links with York and North Yorkshire’s vibrant business community. These connections create meaningful opportunities for our students and local organisations to learn, innovate, and grow together. These partnerships provide invaluable access to internships, networking, and career pathways, preparing students for success in today’s business world. Last year, our students collaborated with local businesses on sustainable projects, demonstrating how responsible management education drives real-world impact and supports community growth.
York Business School is proud to sponsor the York Press Business Awards. These awards celebrate a diverse range of local businesses from innovative startups to established family enterprises that champion social responsibility, ethical practices, and sustainable development — values at the heart of our ethos. We are excited to continue this partnership and to celebrate the innovation, resilience, and dedication of York’s businesses.
Looking ahead, York Business School remains committed to deepening collaboration with the business community and inspiring responsible leadership that drives lasting, positive change. Discover more about York Business School at: https://www.yorksj.ac.uk/schools/york-business-school/
