AMBA IV 2012 - 2013 «LUISS truly gave me the well-rounded experience I needed to make a career transition.
The combination of the industry expertise, international culture, and the many resources I had at my
fingertips will be invaluable to my future career. I gained mentors and built relationships with peers,
faculty, administrators and others in the business community through a myriad of presentations
and courses. My network and resources grew exponential and I am really amazed at how many
of the people that I met during my master have continued to give me guidance».

Engineering and in 2008 I attended the Aviation MBA at luiss Business School after a work experience
of five years. The AMBA allowed me to join the passion in aerospace technology with the will to
