Synergistic collaboration between the Institute and the University of San Marino
From this year, the collaboration between San Marino Innovation and the University of the Republic of San Marino is closer and contributes to the strengthening and even more of the virtual bridge that connects the system of San Marino students and graduates of the University, in order to facilitate the intersection between job supply and demand and the possibility of internships. With internships, companies and graduates can benefit from students a mutual advantage: companies have the opportunity to seek real projects from interns, with identifiable and tangible outputs, being able to find solutions to contingent problems. In this way, companies will be able to carry out a scouting activity on trainees, early identifying the most suitable talents for them and planning their internal collaboration and professional growth paths. At the same time, trainees will have the opportunity to observe a company in its operation, but also to measure themselves against real problems and criticalities to be solved. Furthermore, he will have the opportunity to make himself known in the company and to prove his worth in terms of having specific feedback to be included in the curriculum and in terms of further activities to be carried out by the same company at the end of the course of study. The High Technological Content Companies of San Marino Innovation can in fact activate the students and recent graduates of the degree courses of the University of the Republic of San Marino by contacting the representatives for internships and placements of each scientific area: they will assist them in the activation procedure, which provides for the decision of an agreement between the company and the University and the drafting of a training project. The synergistic activity does not end here: some entrepreneurs of the innovation regime have made themselves available for a more active collaboration, thanks to the interest and availability of Professor Karen Venturini, delegate of the Rector for Innovation and professor of “Innovation Management and creativity “in the Degree Course in Management Engineering. “The possibility offered by San Marino Innovation of some startups present in the area to involve their business reality – explains Prof. Karen Venturini – is very useful for consolidating the topics covered as a theorist and giving students The management engineering course is particularly attentive to collaboration with local authorities in the field of innovation: I recall the thesis project in the field of innovative startups and circular economy for the research project RESPONSE – “Successful start-up – the impact of Open Innovation Practices and Sustainability “managed by the director and deputy director of the degree course, Barbara Bigliardi and Leonardo Tagliente respectively”. Four meetings planned as part of the course in “Management of innovation and creativity” in which the startuppers of UNIO, Botika, Reboxing and The Strategy held an alternative lesson, a story about their experience as entrepreneurs, underlining the different steps that led them to build their business, starting from the idea and the innovative project.
