In 2022 we celebrated 100 years of EB with a big party, a conference and an exhibition. Furthermore, the book Honouring the past, delivering the future was written to mark the occasion. 6 trees were also planted on the Roeterseiland Campus, 1 for each of the 6 continents. The trees symbolise the diversity at UvA EB and its international character. The Amsterdam Economists Association (KAE) presented a statue of the Greek god Hermes as a gift to mark the occasion. The statue is on display in the main hall of Building E.
On 16 January 1922 UvA Economics and Business (UvA EB) was officially established as the UvA's sixth faculty.
