ABOUT ABOUT

Join IIDA Kansas City and Steelcase for a tour of the new UMKC Henry W. Bloch School of Management in Kansas City, Missouri!

 

The UMKC campus is the home to the new Henry W. Bloch Executive Hall for Entrepreneurship and Innovation.  The purpose-built facility is a model education facility with features unrivaled by any other business school in the world.

 

From the vision of Bloch School Dean Teng-kee Tan, the building was brought to life by co-architects BNIM and Moore Ruble Yudell and JE Dunn Construction.  Steelcase and Scott Rice Office Works had the pleasure of partnering with the school and design team.

 

The design of the building itself aligns with innovative teaching techniques that will further elevate the Bloch School as a world leader in educating and training future generations of leaders in entrepreneurship, innovation and business management.  The school opened its doors in August 2013; it was recently featured in Contract Magazine’s, March 2014, issue focused on Higher Education around the world.

 

Join Steelcase, Scott Rice Office Works and the design team from BNIM for hors d'eouvres, a background on the project and a tour of the newly completed space.
