• Guests speakers: Experienced professionals from diverse sectors are invited to the campus to share their expertise and their knowledge of international business in specific fields.
• Company visits: An opportunity to discover organisations in diverse sectors and learn about their business strategies and operations in international markets.
• International Business Trip: A one-week trip visiting international organisations located in the country of destination to broaden the students' comprehension and knowledge of the dimensions involved in the internationalisation of businesses.
