Erasmus UPT and the J.P. Morgan Center for Commodities at the University of Colorado Denver Business School announce a MoU in which the centers pledge to intensify collaboration on executive and MSc university education and on applied and fundamental research in the field of commodity trade.
Dr. Wouter Jacobs of Erasmus UPT: “In these highly turbulent times it is of upmost importance to keep the channels of knowledge diffusion and inter-cultural exchange open. The future is driven by economies of learning. With this partnership, we can connect with the expertise of the JPMCC so to provide more value to our leadership program and young talent development in the commodities trade and supply. This relationship will strengthen the foundations of our soon to be launched Erasmus Commodity Centre (ECC)”.
Dr. Tom Brady of JPMCC: “Whether in the agriculture, metals and energy commodity sectors, building successful careers requires knowledge and education that incorporates a global perspective. Our partnership with Erasmus University strengthens opportunities for worldwide commodity business education and applied research. We see this agreement as a foundation of many future collaborative opportunities for both the JPMCC and Erasmus.”
