Galileo Global Education S.A. is Europe’s largest for-profit higher education provider, with over 200 private colleges (or écoles), universities and campuses around the world and its head office in Paris, France. It claims to be number one in Europe, but ranks behind Chinese groups such as TAL Education Group and New Oriental worldwide.

The company owns and operates several higher-learning institutions, including the Regent's University London, the Macromedia University, the Paris School of Business, the Istituto Marangoni or the European University Cyprus, and almost 40% of EM Lyon Business School.
