To promote joint research projects between teams of faculty and researchers from Vlerick Leuven Gent Management School and the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration at its partner university, Ghent University, a joint [research platform](https://www.vlerick.com/en/research-faculty/) was established in 2011. This open-network platform brings **affiliated researchers and faculty** from both institutions closer together, facilitates the exchange of information and knowledge, and offers easy access to the research facilities of the partner institution.
