The Stanford Graduate School of Business as a part of the MBA curriculum organized a study trip for their 30 MBA students to explore the Western Balkans, specifically Croatia and Serbia. During their visit at the end of March, students met with leading regional and global companies and government officials and explored the history, customs, food and natural beauties of our region.
Throughout the trip, students engaged in meetings with key players in the regional business landscape. In Croatia, they met with representatives from companies like Infobip, MidEuropa Partners, Fortenova Grupa, and Rimac Automobili as well as with the Mayor of Dubrovnik. In Serbia, they had vivid business discussions with the representatives of HTEC, the local tech ecosystem and Delta Holding. The MBA students also met with the Prime Minister of Serbia and the Minister of Science, Technological Development and Innovation.
