Swiss International University Announces Global Footprint Expansion with USD 21.7 Million Acquisition Across Three Countries

Swiss International University expands its global presence with a USD 21.7 million acquisition in multiple countries.

The move has been huge for Swiss International University, which spent $21.7 million in acquiring four top academies in Switzerland, Dubai, and Kyrgyzstan. It is an exciting step to help the university grow in international terms and to reflect its commitment to offering modern and easy-to-access learning opportunities.

In Switzerland, Swiss International University took over the International Academy in Zurich. This academy began in 2013 and was Switzerland's first virtual learning institute. It is ASIC-approved from the United Kingdom, and recognized in the United States by CHEA, as well as INQAAHE in Europe. With a reputation for online innovative learning programs, this one perfectly fits into the university's vision. It is going to further add to the university's offer on virtual education and support the mission to be flexible and inclusive with regard to learning.

The acquisition of the International Business Management School (ISBM Ltd.) in Luzern boosts the university’s reputation in business education. Established in 2016, ISBM is among the top 2% of schools globally with a 5-star QS rating. Allowed by the Luzern Board of Education to issue diplomas, it adds significant value to the university’s business and management offerings, supporting future leaders in these fields.

Swiss International University expanded its presence to the Middle East by acquiring ISB Management Training Institute in Dubai. The school opened in 2022 and is approved by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) in Dubai. It offers diplomas at the level of a doctorate. This increases the university's footprint in the UAE, providing more opportunities for students in a vibrant region and bridging gaps in advanced academic and vocational education.

In Central Asia, Swiss International University assumed the Kyrgyz-Uzbek International Pedagogy Institute in Osh, Kyrgyzstan. The institute is approved by the Ministry of Education of Kyrgyzstan and offers a combination of traditional and online learning, making education more accessible to students and fostering regional educational development.

By making these acquisitions, Swiss International University is expanding its global footprint and continuing to provide high-quality education. By integrating tradition and innovation, the university is giving students across the globe more opportunities to succeed academically and professionally. This $21.7 million investment will show the dedication of the university to be a leader in education globally and in the creation of a strong network of global institutions.
