We are thrilled to announce a significant expansion of our Master of International Business program with the introduction of a new double degree option. https://lnkd.in/gYFC_dEu Beginning in 2025, students enrolled in the MIB program will have the opportunity to pursue a double degree in collaboration with FGV EAESP - Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo da Fundação Getulio Vargas, a leading business school in Brazil. The new partnership represents a first for both schools; It is the MIB’s first double degree in South America, and FGV EAESP’s first in Canada. “We are thrilled to add FGV EAESP to the Smith MIB program’s growing list of double-degree offerings. These partnerships play a key role in preparing students for international business careers, granting them increased exposure and experience in a different region of the world,” says Angela James, Director of Smith’s Centre for International Management.

Special thanks to my coach #JanJananayagam and #MargeriethVisser for their strategic insights and guidance. # Value Creation and Capturing: Your business model's value creation and capturing should prevail over technical solutions. # Data Strategy: Not everybody needs to be a Tech Wizz - However formulating a robust data strategy for your digital marketing business model is crucial. # Data Quality: The success of your digital marketing and sales automation heavily depends on high data quality. # Digital Transformation: Data quality is the foundation for many AI applications in digital transformation. # Passion for Lifescience, transforming Healthcare through digital technologies and a deep understanding of Patient Voice: I have found a new passion in ensuring that the #PatientVoice is revealed, quantified, and communicated to various stakeholders. 🔍 For example, #SemanticHub's AI solution has shed light on the mental health struggles of rare disease, oncology, and severely ill patients across 27 countries.

Looking at award-winning case studies is a great way to 'dig deeper' to find a B-school that is the best fit for you. If a topic resonates with your interests and goals, then you might have the opportunity to be taught by the author, which is an amazing learning experience. p.s. - Sign me up for the chocolate industry one! 😊 Here are the 3 award-winning cases written by INSEAD faculty. 1) Sustainable Finance | Consumer Goods Does Sustainability Pay? Barry Callebaut's Sustainability Improvement Loan is written by Lucie Tepla, Senior Affiliate Professor of Finance, and explores how Barry Callebaut Group," the largest B2B cocoa and chocolate company in the world, innovated to align its financing with its sustainability objectives." 2) Marketing | Energy Sector | M&A Digitally-powered Customer-centricity in the Industrial Gas Sector: The Air Liquide-Airgas Merger by David Dubois, Associate Professor of Marketing at INSEAD, explores how Air Liquide, looked to develop ‘customer intimacy’ through digital technologies following its acquisition of US company Airgas. "The case outlines the differences and complementarities in dealing with various customer segments and provides insights into understanding how customer maturity goes hand in hand with transformation efforts and digital marketing and selling strategy formulation." 3) Fashion | Strategy | General Management SHEIN vs ZARA SA: Digital Transformation in the Fast-fashion Industry, written by Guoli Chen, Professor of Strategy at INSEAD, "explores SHEIN's historical development and its "fast-fashion 2.0" business model-using big data and algorithms to identify customers and their preferences." Note that the cases also had other co-authors and participants but for the purpose of this post, I'm just highlighting the #INSEAD faculty.
