Established in 2011 as the Case Writing Initiative, the Centre for Management Practice (CMP) was renamed the Centre for Case Learning Excellence (CCX) on 1 July 2025. Based at Singapore Management University (SMU), CCX supports SMU faculty in the development of high-quality teaching cases. These cases are designed to meet the needs of a diverse audience, ranging from undergraduate students to senior corporate executives. Beyond case development, the Centre also translates academic research into practice-oriented insights, showcasing the intellectual contributions of both SMU faculty and prominent Asian decision-makers. CCX’s mission is to position SMU as a university that collaborates closely with industry to foster mutually beneficial partnerships that enhance management learning. Serving as a conduit between management theory and real-world business practice, the Centre enables academic research to be transformed into practical insights that resonate with both scholarly and general audiences.
