DREAM TEAM

MASTERCLASS IMPACT

Moments of “non-formal” discussion in which a group of 80 young people between 18 and 26 interact with a leader of industry, institutions and the ecosystem of Italian innovation. The Impact Masterclasses are meant to light a fire of personal growth on everything that impacts on living today, starting from an equal comparison with the great minds of the economy and society.

ROUNDTABLE

Moments of debate on the future of the “Next Generation”. A roundtable will involve Antonluca Matarazzo, General Manager of Valter Longo Onlus, a foundation that works to prevent diseases through proper nutrition, while on the other table we will discuss CSR, corporate social responsibility, in the conception of an economy new and sustainable.
