Description
The experience
On 10 September 2026 Economics Network took part in EssilorLuxottica Universe at the company's offices in Via Tortona 35, Milan. Organised in collaboration between EssilorLuxottica and Next Leaders, powered by Forbes Italia, the event combined networking with a business game focused on analysis, collaboration and strategic vision.
The business game
Teams worked through a series of challenges, from a strategy case to a data challenge, ending with a short final pitch to a jury from the company. The day closed with the awards ceremony and time for participants to exchange ideas.
EN's participation
David, Colin and Francesco took part as the EN team: a chance to put their skills to the test in a business setting and share an experience beyond university.
