As a part of Sheikh Sulaiman Alrajhi’s long-term comprehensive vision towards investing in human capital and developing future leaders who are able to make the change to their communities, SRSB has been established to be the inculpate of innovation and entrepreneurship in Business Administration school (SRSB) and to be an important component of the Kingdom’s long-term economic and competitive development. The intention of the school of business is to provide a dynamic, market-centered and high quality academic experience. School of Business (SRSB) is to be commended for positioning the SRSB of business beyond the usual academic confines. What will make this particular business school so unique in the region is that it aims to create value for students, local enterprises as well as the nascent entrepreneurial community in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
