There will be 4 fundamental areas that we need to cover during this Master:

• 1. To identify and recognize top trends: becoming familiar with all kind of new consumer, society and business trends will help draw a global reality full of new opportunities. Looking at the world as a global citizen and learning how to enjoy this new reality will provide students with a competitive advantage and prepare them for a new business world.
• 2. To capture and be familiar with business fundamentals: the understanding of basic aspects of business, such as opportunity identification and competitive assessment, and the way to address them through plans, organization design, processes and resources will allow students to become familiar with businesses and hence approach internationality from a stronger perspective.
• 3. To understand and participate in business globalization: students will be exposed to the increasing complexity of businesses based on technology and geopolitical disappearance of frontiers. Applying business fundamentals to cross border opportunities and business models will allow for a much richer and wider management perspective. Internationality will be present both in terms of strategic assessment and functional understanding.
• 4. To develop capacities and competencies that will provide competitive advantage for a fast integration of the international reality into the business practices. Understanding multiple cultures, developing leadership skills for wider business environment, understanding the importance of networking and partnering in a business world that operates very often with remote business processes, all these will allow for a new kind of professional, much more integrated and capable to succeed in an open world.
