Expanding the Corndel x Imperial Partnership
Shaping the future of AI, Data and Leadership – together
At Corndel, we believe transformation should be human, practical and measurable. That’s why we’ve deepened our partnership with Imperial Executive Education, part of Imperial College London, ranked #1 University in UK and Europe and #2 in the World (QS 2026).
