On Friday 28th and Saturday 29th June, join the two most important institutional appointments of the year for the Community of Bologna Business School: the Graduation, a solemn moment that celebrates the academic success of the School’s graduates, and the Reunion, a meeting and networking opportunity dedicated to the Alumni and the friends of the School.
Multiplying Opportunities
Knowledge generates infinite opportunities for innovation, growth and development, which in an inclusive, international and multidisciplinary community create an almost exponential multiplier effect. Multiplying Opportunities, which represents the vocation and mission of Bologna Business School and its Community, is thus the guiding theme of the Graduation 2019 & XIII Alumni Reunion.
GRADUATION 2019
The two days will start on Friday at 6.30 pm with the Graduation, the ceremony during which the Magnificent Rector of the University of Bologna, Francesco Ubertini will be awarding almost graduates 600 students who have successfully completed a Full-time Master or an Executive Master at BBS.
The Commencement Speech will be held by John Elkann, Executive Chairman at Ferrari, in the presence of the Magnificent Rector of the University of Bologna, Francesco Ubertini, the Dean of Bologna Business School, Massimo Bergami and the President of the BBS Steering Committee, Romano Prodi.
XIII ALUMNI REUNION

On Saturday, the Reunion continues from 8.00 am, with the managerial meditations taking place in the ‘Grotto’ of Villa Guastavillani. Afterwards, breakfast will be served in the Secret Garden.

We will conclude the XIII Alumni Reunion at 12.30, with a Farewell on the topic of Generative Storywriting and Storytelling.
