As a bonus, we share some greeting words from the organizers of the Kick-off 2019 Business Challenge:

Dear alumni,

As you might be aware, this year the Master School Kick-Off is going to take place in Trento. Since EIT Digital education is all about innovation and scalability, we will also need to introduce an innovation to manage the scale of student inflow (500 this year!).

With this message, we want to invite you to become mentors in the upcoming Kick-Off. For sure you have been at least in one of them and if you know us, you know that we like being radical in our innovations. We are looking for a team of open-minded, visionary and committed mentors for the business challenge!

The Alumni Foundation will help us manage this process from promotion to selection, so if you want to be part of the bigger team that supports the EIT Digital mission and inspires new students in acting on their dreams, apply and join us!

Looking forward to seeing you in Trento,

Milena Stoycheva and Lorenzo Angeli

 

Good luck! We hope to see you next October in Trento!
