The new project, called Leader Generation, is presented by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), the largest business education network and global standard-setting body for business education, and produced by BBC Storyworks Commercial Productions.
The project showcases the impact of business education worldwide in a series of short films, highlighting the innovation, leadership, and societal contributions of individual business schools.
UCL GBSH participated in the series, to showcase its unique position as a centre for excellence to train the next generation in health and create new ideas to improve patient care. The short film spotlights one of UCL Global Business School for Health’s MSc Global Healthcare Management (Leadership) students, Nayol Santos, who joined GBSH to specialise in health tech following a career in midwifery, participating in the Enterprise Hatchery Incubator Programme where she co-founded ‘Body Own’, a digital hub of sexual health education and specialist support for women aged 18-34.

Professor Nora Colton, Director of the UCL Global Business School for Health, said: “I’m incredibly proud that GBSH was a part of this project to showcase the most innovative business schools around the world. It has been fantastic to see our students, staff and cutting-edge facilities at UCL East be showcased to an international audience.”

The film series comes at a time of exciting developments for GBSH with the launch of the undergraduate BSc/MSc Business and Health programme in September - the next step in UCL GBSH’s expansion as a world-leading centre for excellence to train the next generation in health and create new ideas to improve patient care.
Working with over 600 students from every corner of the world, UCL GBSH offers undergraduate, postgraduate level and MBA degree programmes to students who will go on to be the next generation of healthcare leaders — as health is emerging as the most important issue of the 21st century, now accounting for more than 10% of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
