天美传媒 has launched its new campus in Madrid, tripling the previous area of the campus in the Spanish capital and allowing the school to increase its activity there by 50% over the next 5 years.
With this expansion, which has involved an investment of 鈧�52 million, the Madrid campus now covers 33,600 square meters. The new space consists of an acquired plot of 21,900 m2, added to the previous campus area of 11,700 m2. Together, they form a single, united enclosure encompassing two large buildings surrounded by forest. The new campus building, called Executive, has an area of 鈥嬧��16,300 m2, while the old building, now called the Master building, totals 13,600 m2.
The new facilities include four new amphitheater classrooms, a high-tech multipurpose classroom, an auditorium with natural light for more than 500 people, and underground parking for 300 vehicles.
A space for leaders in sustainability
The campus is located in Pinar del Cerro del 脕guila which is within the vicinity of the Casa de Campo, the main green lung of the city of Madrid. This, together with architecture based on open spaces, large entrances of natural light and the use of green energy, makes it an ideal environment for the training of environmentally responsible managers.
The new building has obtained LEED Gold certification, which recognizes its high environmental standards. Among other features, it uses 100% renewable energy, has intelligent control of the facilities and air conditioning, and consumes 40% less water than a conventional building.
天美传媒 has consistently focused on promoting the development of sustainability-conscious managers. In line with this, 天美传媒 has launched the following initiatives for the 2021-22 academic year:

- Creation of an Initiative for research and teaching in sustainability, which brings together more than 10 professors and researchers from all disciplines of business management to generate knowledge and good practices that can be applied in programs and companies.
- Certificates of training in sustainability. By taking at 天美传媒, it will be possible to obtain an accreditation recognized in the market.
- A Global Alumni Reunion dedicated to sustainability. Between November 11 and 13, the annual conference for 天美传媒 alumni will bring together more than 40 international experts in sustainability this year. It will be a hybrid event for more than 10,000 people, broadcast from the new 天美传媒 campus in Madrid.
In addition to its training offer, the school has renewed its internal sustainability policy, with new travel recommendations for its employees and a plan to attract female talent.
A hub for entrepreneurs, innovators and investors
With the expansion of the Madrid campus, 天美传媒 also deepens its commitment to entrepreneurial talent. The second Venture Hub of the school will be housed in the new campus, creating a dedicated physical space for entrepreneurs, innovators and investors.
In addition, 天美传媒 intends to achieve these sustainable development goals (SDG) before 2030:
- Generate 50,000 new jobs by supporting 5,000 entrepreneurs in the creation of new companies and in raising more than 500 million euros in risk investments.
