Adecco has maintained a fully-endowed Chair since 2001.

Since its creation in 1965, London Business School (LBS) has striven to be the preeminent global business school, raising talent and advancing knowledge through theory and practice in a multinational, multicultural environment. Each year LBS educates over 1,000 students and 6,000 executives; there is now an alumni network of over 24,000 people in 100 countries.

Since 2001 The LBS has been conducting and publishing research on behalf of Adecco, including work into labour markets, labour mobility and migration and social capital. The calibre of LBS as an institution and the quality of the research, enhance the reputation of Adecco as a thought leader in human resource services.

In June 2006, Adecco & LBS orchestrated the event: “Opening China to the World – Developing Labour Markets and Labour Law in China”
