MIB Alumni Talks
MIB Trieste School of Management is pleased to announce the upcoming "MIB Alumni Talks" events, organized by the Alumni Association in collaboration with the School. This ambitious project aims to strengthen the connection among Alumni and promote the sharing of knowledge and experiences worldwide, as well as to spread the brand of our business school.
The "MIB Alumni Talks" are thematic events that will take place in different cities in Italy, Europe and around the world, starting from three cities in the Triveneto region. These meetings will offer MIB alumni, and managers and professionals who wish to attend, the opportunity to meet, discuss and explore relevant topics in the international business landscape and beyond.
Each event will feature one or more presentations by speakers, selected from among MIB Alumni and other Executives, recognised in their field. Some meetings will also feature panel discussions and Q&A sessions, allowing participants to interact directly with the speakers and with each other, exchanging ideas, opinions and best practices.
The conclusion of each event will be a networking aperitif, a leisure moment designed to widen our network in a relaxing atmosphere.

"Spaces that Speak: Technology, Design & Wellbeing for Better Work"
The MIB Trieste Alumni Association, under the patronage of SIEC and with the support of 3P Technologies, invites you to the next MIB Alumni Talk in Padua:
“Spaces that Speak: Technology, Design & Wellbeing for Better Work. Open space or privacy? Collaboration or concentration?”
In today’s workplaces, these needs coexist—and often conflict.
At a time when space is no longer just physical but also digital, we’ll explore how smart technologies and advanced design can ease the tension between openness and confidentiality.
How can we shape environments that foster wellbeing, collaboration, and performance—while still ensuring focus, discretion, and meaningful interactions?
Join us for a discussion on experiences, trends, and solutions to design spaces that speak the language of the future of work: more flexible, more inclusive, more human.
The Talk will be held in Italian.
