I came to MIB Trieste from Hong Kong. From the first day of the MBA to the day we graduated, the experience was extremely valuable.

The MIB MBA opened my mind, I learned to see things from another perspective, and I came face to face with cultures which were very different from my own. Thanks to the School, I started working and developing projects with China, building the basis for my career in Luxottica.
