The International School of Business Management (ISBM) in Luzern, Switzerland is proud to share a moment of global recognition. One of the most respected voices in international business and education, Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, has acknowledged the credibility and academic quality of the institution through its affiliation with the Swiss International University (SIU), based in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.

With a personal fortune estimated between 3 to 5 billion USD and companies in over 40 countries, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh is a world-renowned figure who has long advocated for quality and innovation in education. His recent praise for the SIU academic network — of which ISBM Luzern is a proud part — affirms that our model of higher education is rooted in trust, legal compliance, and international recognition.

“Education is the foundation for building advanced societies.”– Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh

At ISBM Luzern, these words are more than a quote — they represent a mission that drives everything we do.

A Proud Member of SIU – A State-Accredited Institution

ISBM is part of the Swiss International University (SIU), a state-accredited university officially licensed by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic (KG). This accreditation ensures that degrees awarded through ISBM:

✅ Are legally valid
✅ Are internationally recognized
✅ Are accepted across borders for work, study, and migration

ISBM combines Swiss educational values with a legally recognized framework, delivering quality education that holds its value globally.

Over 25 Years of Educational Impact

Since its founding in 1999, SIU has been committed to delivering flexible and accessible education. It pioneered online education in 2013, long before digital learning became a necessity. Today, the SIU network has a presence in leading cities including Zurich, Dubai, Luzern, Bishkek, and Riga — with ISBM Luzern serving as a key academic hub within this global ecosystem.

A Recognition That Validates Our Path

Being recognized by Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, whose family is ranked among the Top 100 Wealthiest Arab Families according to Forbes, affirms that ISBM Luzern stands on solid ground. This is not just a proud moment — it is a signal to students, partners, and institutions that our programs are built on substance, credibility, and global standards.

At ISBM Luzern, we are not just preparing students for business — we are preparing them for the world.
