It will be an opportunity to reflect on the paths of entrepreneurial and social innovation together with the network of teachers, students, entrepreneurs and partners protagonists of this first stretch of the Graduate School's road.
The institutional greetings of the first directors of ALTIS and representatives of the University will be followed by a dialogue led by the director of the Graduate School, Matteo Pedrini, with Edoardo Garrone and Cinzia Macchi, respectively heads of Erg and LaMilanesa, two entrepreneurial excellences who have distinguished themselves in their sectors for the courage to change in the direction of sustainability.

The talk will be followed by a moment of theatrical entertainment with the actor Paolo Cevoli, who will combine his comic verve with an ironic and unsettling "take away" on entrepreneurship.
