Systematization of students’ business experiences through active learning workshops.
Business Experience Workshop 2023/24 - Aiming at environmental and social sustainability
Final workshop

8 March 2024, 9.30am -12:15pm

The project “Systematization of students' business experiences through active learning workshops” supports the growth and employability of Japanese Language students, who have suffered and are still suffering from the high unemployment rate and the restrictions imposed by COVID-19 in Italy in recent years. 

The participants will choose and deal with various topics related to sustainability with the support of the staff of Mitsubishi Italia and other European branches, also having the opportunity to design and propose a start-up related to their topic. During the workshops, they will acquire many practical skills, such as developing an efficient strategic plan, understanding the SDGs, getting familiar with the business world and the use of Business Japanese. 

The data and feedback collected through the workshop will also enable further developments of the CAFOSCARI Jisho app, funded by Mitsubishi Corporation in 2022, which is available for free to Italian-speaking Japanese students all over the world. 

This final workshop will crown the five meetings cycle that began on October 26 2023 and all the work the students have done during these past couple of months. Indeed, each group will present the start-up project they developed over the course of the past four workshop meetings, also thanks to the continuous and precious feedback from Mitsubishi Italia managers and staff. Moreover, Mitsubishi Corp. International Europe HR manager Mr. Kitahara Hisashi will hold a presentation on MC Corporate Philosophy and the Human Resources they seek.
