How corporate partners engage with the Center for AI in Business

Structured pathways for shaping research priorities, accessing student talent, and putting frontier AI work to practical use.

Business Judgment Paired with Engineering Depth

Scheller is Georgia Tech's business school. No other top MBA program sits inside an engineering institution of this scale. Partners get a faculty cohort that can navigate the technical edge of AI and the business questions that come with it.

The Southeast's Business Hub

Atlanta is home to 17 Fortune 500 headquarters. The corporate relationships, the recruiting pipeline, and the regional industry context are all local to the Center, not abstract.

Faculty Focused on What Matters in Business AI

70+ Scheller researchers working across the five priority areas where AI is reshaping how organizations compete, hire, and create value.
