Rather than focus on the crisis itself and its causes, IE wants to unveil the opportunities that can be pursued by companies, professionals and entrepreneurs. With the support of the business community, experts from different areas and the civil society, IE experts will explore growth and opportunities for professionals and companies covering a myriad of topics and areas: from exciting possibilities in emerging markets to the new skills that professionals must develop in order to move up the corporate ladder, as well as sectorial opportunities in fast-growth industries.
“The objective of the conferences is not the crisis itself, but to look for opportunities to produce sustainable value, one of IE’s core values”, says Deise Leobet, IE’s International Development Director for Europe and CIS.
The workshops will be open to students, young professionals and executives, as well as government representatives and other organizations interested in producing value, regardless the crisis in the continent. Spaces are limited so we warmly invite you to ensure your registration at http://events.ie.edu.
All sessions will be conducted in English and will provide you with a taster of the dynamic and innovative learning environment which we promote throughout all of our programs at IE.
We look forward to meeting you there.
