History
The Student Association of the Stockholm School of Economics (SASSE) was founded at the same time as the Stockholm School of Economics, in 1909 [ [http://www.hhs.se/About/History.htm "www.hhs.se", About SSE - A Brief History] ] . The Stockholm School of Economics was the first academic institution in Northern Europe specialized on economics, finance and business, and its student union is one of the oldest academic institutions' student unions in Sweden. The student union is currently preparing for the celebrations of its and the school's one hundred year aniversary in 2009. The student union is known for its intense cooperation with the corporate shere in Northern Europe and has numerous corporate sponsors, including Hewlett Packard, Citigroup, Oriflame, PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and Bain & Company.
The student association was originally situated in the school's building at Brunkebergstorg 2, in Norrmalm in downtown Stockholm. In 1926 the student association, as well as the school, moved to a new building by architect Ivar Tengbom at Sveavägen 65, the capital's central north-south axis, in Vasastaden, Stockholm.
Several of Sweden's and Northern Europe's leading political figures and businesspeople have been members of the SASSE. Among these are: Ruben Rausing, founder of the company Tetra Pak (the Rausing family is today one of the richest families in Britain), professor Bertil Ohlin (party leader for the leading opposition party in the Swedish parliament, the Liberal People's Party 1944-1967; invented the standard mathematical model of international free trade, the Heckscher-Ohlin model;
Nobel Prize in Economics 1977) and Jan Carlzon (Chief Executive Officer of SAS Group 1981-1994).[Jan Carlzon interview with Bob Thompson, "CustomerThink.com", March 7, 2006 [http://www.customerthink.com/interview/jan_carlzon_moments_of_truth] ] ]:"See also the category "
