The Business Confucius Institute at the AUEB, 雅典经商大学商务孔子学院 Details
Athens Business Confucius Institute (ABCI) was established in 2009 by the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB) in cooperation with the University of International Business and Economics (UIBE) in Beijing and the Office of Chinese Language Council International (HANBAN). HANBAN, as a non-profit educational organization, has established since 2005 more than 500 Confucius Institutes in the world with the purpose of promoting Chinese language, culture and facilitating international exchanges.In late June 2020, the Confucius Institute Headquarters (HΑΝΒΑΝ) was renamed to the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation, and is no longer involved with Confucius Institute program funding. Since then, a newly formed non-profit charitable organization, the Chinese International Education Foundation (CIEF), comprised by a number of universities and corporations, has assumed the responsibility of developing the Confucius Institute branding and providing financial resources.ABCI aims to serve as a bridge between Greece and China in the domain of education, culture and business. By bringing together these two great civilizations and historic nations, AUEB is hosting in Athens the first and only Confucius Institute for Business in Greece and the third in Europe that is specialized in Economics and Business Administration. We support business, local government and community bodies in developing links with China through language training, cultural immersion and networking.
