How to start a business with strong social impact? The story of GBO – Global Business Opportunities Italy

LUISS Business School has recently hosted the GBO 2016, an educational and cultural programme for entrepreneurship and social impact On August 1, GBO’s the last long day took place at LUISS Business School. In the morning participants presented their projects, and in the late afternoon the programme finished with a beautiful closing ceremony. The GBO programme, an outstanding learning and life experience designed by Al Ahli Holding Group CSR division, took place in Italy for the first time since its foundation. LUISS Business School hosted the event in Rome, and greeted participants from Italy, Argentina, Jordan, and the United Arab Emirates, which was present with numerous students from Khalifa University of Abu Dhabi. The aim of the initiative is to give groups of 25-30-year-old students from different countries and cultures the tools to identify business opportunities and develop entrepreneurial skills. GBO 2016 was born in cooperation between the CSR Division of Al Ahli Holding Group, based in Dubai, LUISS Business School, and its Alumni Association. The programme gives its participants the opportunity to meet top business and academic leaders, to visit major local businesses of the hosting country, and to widen network in an international environment. The final aim is to provide students with knowledge and tools to realise their own business ideas generating high social impact, while bridging the gap between the Arab Region and other cultures. The first sessions of the programme took place at LUISS Business School, where, among other speakers Olivier Lavinal, the World Bank’s Advisor to Vice President in the MENA Region held a session on business strategy and social impact. After a few days, the class moved to Spoleto (in the Italian region of Umbria) thanks to the cooperation with its City Hall, which gave the patronage to the initiative. The aim was to leverage on an outdoor concept and the experiential path, and to allow the students to strongly focus on their commitment. They lived an intense experience through lectures, real business cases, business visits to companies such as Monini Olive Oil and Urbani Truffles, and cultural nights, which was all combined into an amazing and unique competition. Each country’s delegation had to organise an event with a limited budget, including food, music, and a show related to the most relevant cultural phenomenon of each country. Judging criteria for the cultural nights were the use of budget, time management (the event could not be longer than 3 hours), problem solving, and creativity of the show. After the first sessions, the class started to work in teams. Each team developed a business plan with the support of the programme mentors. The 9 teams presented their projects to the judges that assessed innovation, sustainability, and the plan’s capability to generate a high social impact. According to the participants and the organisers the experience was unique. “I want to see the transformation of students in entrepreneurs and business leaders, who are able to deeply affect social issues,” said Lina Hourani, Director of the CSR Division of Al Ahli Holding Group, the founder and “soul” of GBO. The programme was definitely a success and a big opportunity for the students: the LUISS Business School delegation won the Cultural Night Contest and the 9 team members were awarded by CSR Al Ahli with the free participation in the next Global Conference for Youth Development in Abu Dhabi, taking place in November 2016. “An experience, which quite changed my life and my mind-set,” said Andrea Grossi, student of the LUISS Master in Corporate Finance programme and winner of the Best Speaker Award. “A unique path, which deeply affected myself and which I will never forget,” said Edoardo Carboni, also a Master in Corporate Finance student, who was given an opportunity to have an internship at the CSR Al Ahli Office in London. GBO Italy was a win-win event for everybody: the students, the LUISS Business School delegation, the partners, the Alumni Association who provided the programme with speakers. But with no doubt the most relevant feature of the programme was the high commitment to cultural integration and social growth. “Instead of fighting and struggling, you are the most powerful proof of how people may be in peace, and that brotherhood really exists. You are a good hope for our future since you are good leaders,” said Paolo Boccardelli, Dean of the LUISS Business School. Gallery   22/08/2016

#MasterYourCreativity: uniting business and creativity to transform a passion into a job

Commitment and hard work but also fun, laughs, moments to remember and challanges to overcome: Tonia Petrillo tells us about the Master “Gestione della Produzione Cinematografica e Televisiva”   Curiosity and passion are the two key factors that made me want to enter the film and television industry. After achieving a Degree in Economy and Management I felt the need for a change of “field” and a will to acquire concrete expertise in the audio-visual sector to transform my passion into a concrete job. Why this Master? To understand and study the fascinating film and television industry and try to become part of it. My idea was to combine in my educational path the world of business, strategic analysis, of numbers and charts with the world of creativity, culture and entertainment: two different souls that I have always been passionate about and that I aspired to combine even in my professional experience. I was looking for a Master that would satify my expectations and after several evaluations, choosing LUISS Creative Business Center’s Master in “Gestione della Produzione Cinematografica e Televisiva” prooved to be the best possible choice I could have made. The learning process guarantees a merger of technical and artistic skills with managerial competencies, fundamental for accessing the audio-visual production chain.   #MasterYourCreativity “Raccontare delle storie richiede un metodo”. Nicola Guaglianone, sceneggiatore del film “Lo chiamavano Jeeg Robot” incontra gli studenti del LUISS Creative Business Center per parlare di sceneggiatura, scrittura e cinema. Una foto pubblicata da LUISS Business School (@luissbusiness) in data: 28 Apr 2016 alle ore 03:40 PDT Months of daily commitment, hard work, but also fun, loughs, moments to remember and challenges to overcome; a place where you can learn how to manage difficulties, cultivate your talent and grow both professionally and personally. The learning process enabled me initially to enhance my General Management knowledge, before entering into the world of creativity. The purpose? develop creative and managerial skills, creative expression and entrepreneurial attitude. //   Having the possibility of coming into contact with leading figures of this industry is a unique experience: Gennaro Nunziante, Pino Innocenti, Nicola Guaglianone, Spephen McPherson are just some of the screenwriters, directors and producers that during these months have enriched my specialization path in this field. In the last weeks, as a conclusion to the educational activities of the Master, we had the opportunity of attending intensive sessions with the most prominent Italian production companies such as: Lux Vide, Pepito Produzioni and Rai Fiction. //   The level of professionalism, the guest lectures, the Labs, the individual and group drills and the Masterclasses guarantee a direct and in-depth knowledge of the field, its demands and its main players. I am certain that this experience will prove to be my key for entering the television industry: my ambition is to become a fully competent professional, capable of carrying out high-level of responsibility functions in the audio-visual production field. My advice for those who want to undertake this path? To have motivation, passion, curiosity and perseverance to pursue their dreams. Good luck! Discover the Master 27/06/2016

LUISS Business School hosts the GBO - Global Business Opportunities programme for the first time in Italy

LUISS Business School is glad to host the programme known as GBO - Global Business Opportunities that will take place in Italy, from July 15 to August 1 2016, for the first time since its foundation. GBO is an educational and cultural programme aimed to enhance working groups among youth from different countries and cultures, in order to identify business opportunities and develop entrepreneurial/personal/interpersonal skills. The Italian edition of the programme is organised by the CSR Division of Al Ahli Holding Group, based in Dubai, LUISS Business School, and the LUISS Business School Alumni Association. Al Ahli Holding Group is a UAE privately held company founded more than 40 years ago. The group has approximately 9,000 employees and generates several billions of dollars of revenues every year. Its HQ is located in Dubai taking care of a diverse portfolio of activities ranging from real estate to turnkey construction, from engineering products to shopping malls and retail, from cement to printing, and plastic manufacturing, up to media and entertainment, which has recently become the core business of the company thanks to important strategic alliances, such as with Marvel. The GBO programme is an exciting learning and life experience for the students, who have an opportunity to meet top business and academic leaders, to visit corporations, to widen their network in a multi-ethnic and multinational environment with an aim to learn how to successfully start and operate a business with high social impact. The mission of the programme is to provide the 25 to 30 year old students with knowledge and tools to start and run their own business, and to bridge the gap between the Arab region and other cultures in order to promote a profitable link between future Arab leaders and the rest of the world. This year’s GBO candidates are from Argentina, Jordan, and UAE, the latter being present with a large number of students from Khalifa University of Abu Dhabi, a non-profit institution supported by the UAE Government and entirely owned and financed by the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, with a strong focus on some sectors, such as ICT, aerospace, logistics, energy, and healthcare. The distinctive feature of GBO Italy is the substantial involvement of the LUISS Business School’s alumni, since the school engaged former MBAs as speakers in the educational process. The new Alumni Association has an important role in organising and managing the programme. In particular, thanks to the patronage and support of the City Hall of Spoleto (Umbria), part of the programme will be held outdoors in order to leverage the learning experience of the students. After having divided the class in teams, each of them has to develop its own business plan during the programme with the support of the mentors. On August 1, the teams will present their projects at LUISS Business School to the jury that will assess the level of innovation, sustainability, and the capability to generate high social impact. The winning team will receive an award of cash and services in order to launch the multinational and multi-ethnic start-up with a sound business plan. 14/09/2016
