We are launching a study tour of the MBA GUT Programme! A group of approximately 20 students and their mentors will visit Barcelona on May 20–22 2019 for an Inspirational Safari.
The Safari will be divided into three thematic days:
May 20 – Imagine the Future
Human brains have evolved to avoid complex and uncertain questions such as ‘What might the future be like?’ On this day, the group will challenge their imaginations by aspiring to be great creators and hearing special guest speakers talk about the need to renew our gaze on the world.
May 21 – Innovation
Barcelona has become one of the favourite destinations amongst the leading European innovation circles. It is popular with high-tech start-ups in areas such as hardware, IoT, VR, big data, fintech, health and biotech. These industries are rapidly positioning Barcelona as a European start-up, innovation and tech hub. On this day, the MBA students will see how innovators are hacking reality to make their way towards disruption.
May 22 – Smart City
With a municipal network of 500km of optical fibre, free WiFi routed via street lighting and sensors to monitor air quality, parking spaces and even waste bins, Barcelona is at the cutting edge of testing the Internet of Things (IoT). Now the city wants to turn that potential into an Internet for Citizens. The MBA group will discover engaging projects and speakers will present on how they use tech for the good of their community.
