Digitalization is causing an epic disruption that is not only crushing established business models – it is threatening to destroy the economic world order as we know it today. All of this is happening at frightening speed. With this program, GBS aims to equip students with the skills and understanding to turn this threat into an opportunity. The members of the Advisory Board leverage their experiences and ideas for continuous improvement, which is not only a huge advantage for all stakeholders – it is also a lot of fun.

FRIDAY TALKS

Networking is an integral part of the MBA experience at Goethe Business School. We regularly invite prominent guest speakers from various backgrounds to talk about current topics in digital transformation. While chatting with the experts in an intimate setting, students and alumni gain unique insights into how these experts are dealing with digital transformation and are making change happen. Students can usually look forward to two events per semester, which take place on Friday evenings after regular lectures and are followed by an opportunity to network with other participants.
