Participate in the PIR

The Positive Impact Rating (PIR), a student and faculty driven initiative, invites all business schools worldwide to participate in the 2027 edition of its annual rating.

​

PIR provides a safe environment for first-time participants, as schools rated Level 1 or 2 are not publicly featured in the report, eliminating any risk of negative exposure.

​

Schools can register now for PIR 2027, choosing from new value packages designed to provide a more comprehensive and tailored experience. A full overview is available below. The participation fee covers the administrative costs of running the survey.

​

The data collection process will run from September 2026 to March 2027,

allowing flexibility for different academic systems.

Results will be unveiled at the PRME Global Forum, alongside the PIR Global Summit.
