The S P Jain School of Global Management has unveiled its latest venture with the inauguration of an international campus in London. This new establishment, known as the S P Jain London School of Management (SPJ London), will adhere to the global business education principles of The S P Jain Global Group. It aims to provide students, both local and international, the chance to pursue their studies not only in London but also across other S P Jain campuses in Dubai, Singapore, Sydney, and Mumbai.
Strategically situated in Canary Wharf, London’s bustling financial, business, and tech district, the campus is in close proximity to major financial institutions like HSBC, Barclays, JP Morgan, Citibank, American Express, and Credit Suisse. Originally a center for naval commerce, Canary Wharf has evolved into a dynamic hub for business, culture, and retail.
Founder & President of The S P Jain Global Group, Nitish Jain, explained the choice of London, stating that the surge in students expressing interest in studying in the UK motivated the decision. Emphasizing a student-centric approach, Jain highlighted the school’s commitment to enhancing the learning experience. With the new campus in London, he envisions a collaborative space for students, alumni, industry leaders, and entrepreneurs to engage in thought leadership, networking, and professional development opportunities.
Nitish Jain also mentioned the strategic advantages of the location for part-time jobs, internships, and industry guest lectures. Alan Gemmell, His Majesty’s Trade Commissioner for South Asia and British Deputy High Commissioner for Western India, expressed congratulations to SP Jain School of Global Management for choosing London as its next international campus. Gemmell noted the substantial increase in visas issued to Indian students for UK education, emphasizing the strong allure of UK education across India.
Sarah Chidgey, Head of International Education at the Department for International Trade, UK, welcomed S P Jain to London, acknowledging the institution’s stellar reputation and forward-looking approach to education. She expressed confidence in the enriched learning experiences students would have in London, a global business center.
SPJ London is set to commence undergraduate and postgraduate programs by mid-2023*, with accreditation from the Office for Students, Department for Education, UK. Students graduating from these programs will be conferred with UK degrees, contributing to the diverse educational landscape for both British and international students.
