Luiss 14/02/2023 16:30 Scenario Analysis part 1 The aim is to make students understand how the climate action scenario has profoundly changed after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine highlighting the new opportunities that can be seized by economic actors. For this reason, the first lesson is focused on highlighting the decarbonizing policies and trajectories before the crisis and how they have deeply changed since then. The second lesson, instead, will focus on case studies that underline the beneficial effects of clean technologies from an environmental, social and economic point of view on market actors. This will be done using an analytical and quantitative approach. https://luiss.webex.com/luiss-en/j.php?MTID=mc35eb13f57a7e9dd31bcd84a4cd92712

Luiss 21/02/2023 16:30 Technology Transfer part 1 How can students in academic spin-offs contribute to bridge the distance between technology and market? How can they contribute to the early stage of a technology transfer process (before invention disclosure)?
The lessons will build on the development of skills and procedures which are intrinsic part of the technological innovation process’s complex value chain, linking research to its societal deployment and playing a key role in our economic ecosystem. From the discovery of novel technologies, through the involvement of non-technological stakeholders, the protection of intellectual property and finally to the marketing, licensing and product development, these lessons will give an overview of the entire process.

Luiss 14/03/2023 16:30 Stakeholder Engagement part 1 How does a brand or a company engage with both its loyal and potential customers?

We are going to explore the meaning of engagement: from general notions about the word to various aspects of its meaning in relation to B2C realities.

Students will be encouraged to actively participate in the discussion through open questions and group assignments in order to develop critical thinking skills and engagement strategies applied to the business environment as it relates to clients.

There will be a focus on social media engagement, presenting case studies to better understand the notions that guide companies in the realization of their business models.
