The ALBA faculty consists of a core of resident faculty and a number of visiting professors from leading international business schools in Europe, the US and Canada, such as INSEAD, Warwick Business School, London Business School, New York University, Boston College, etc.  All ALBA Professors are leading academics who produce high calibre academic research. Faculty members are engaged in ongoing research at the cutting edge from which new ideas, knowledge and applications are generated and incorporated into teaching.

The pursuit of world-class research constitutes a fundamental element of ALBA's institutional blueprint, and one of the most important dimensions of resident faculty's academic activities. The current 22-member faculty team have produced several books and book chapters, thousands of academic conference presentations, and hundreds of journal articles.
