Founded in 1900 as the School of Commerce at the Syrian Protestant College, business education at Ì©¹ú²ÊƱhas been at the forefront of business education for over a century. From its roots as one of the first business programs in the region to its transformation into a globally recognized institution now known as the Suliman S. Olayan School of Business that continues to transform business thinking across the MENA region.

As we celebrate 125 years of progress in 2025, we honor the legacy that has defined our journey, shaping who we are today and inspiring our vision for the future. This milestone is not just a reflection of where we've been but a bold commitment to where we are headed—empowering the next generation of leaders to make meaningful contributions locally, regionally, and globally.

Join us in celebrating chapter 125 of our story—a legacy built over generations—and step into the next era of bold ideas, enduring impact, and limitless possibilities.​​
