Meet the Expert – Alumni in the Classroom
Alumni, managers, and experts from national and international organizations have the opportunity to join our faculty in the classroom, becoming “guest lecturers for a day” and exploring key topics of our degree programmes by sharing their direct professional experience. These sessions, addressed to undergraduate and graduate students, aim to strengthen the connection between academia and the professional world, enhance the contribution of Alumni and Alumnae, and enrich the students’ educational journey.

Every connection is a bridge to new opportunities
Alumni are much more than a network of former students: they represent a dynamic ecosystem of professionals, innovators, and leaders who share not only a common past but also a vision for the future. The VSM Alumni Community is a space where connections turn into opportunities, where dialogue sparks new ideas, and where each personal story contributes to building a collective positive impact.
Born within the Venice School of Management (VSM) – which evolved from the Department of Management at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, officially adopting its new name in 2024 after earning EQUIS international accreditation – this community blends academic excellence with diverse professional journeys, creating a space where past, present, and future intertwine.
Whether you are an experienced professional, at the beginning of your career, or envisioning an innovative future, here you will find a strong network ready to support and empower you, stimulating your personal and professional growth.
Together, we transform connections into a driving force for innovation, growth, and positive impact.
