KNOWLEDGE4 POSITIVE IMPACT
We believe in the power of actions that shape the future, in the strength of ideas that inspire people. At this new editorial hub, Knowledge 4 Positive Impact, we are passionate about sharing knowledge, best practices and success stories about how individuals and organisations can make a positive and concrete impact on society and the environment.
Through articles, videos, interviews and podcasts, created in collaboration with our Faculty and POLIMI GSoM Community, we will address crucial topics such as purpose, innovation and sustainability. Our goal is to inspire tomorrow's leaders to drive change and help make a difference for a more sustainable future.

From Artificial Intelligence to Augmented Reality: digital innovation is changing the way in which cultural institutions preserve, promote, disseminate and enable the enjoyment of artistic and cultural heritage.

What are the real impacts of an Executive MBA on the career of those who attend it? POLIMI Graduate School of Management decided to answer this question by analysing the employment data of EMBA alumni who graduated in 2023, just one year after completing the programme. The results not only confirm the effectiveness of the course but also paint a picture of profound professional transformation.

In the current landscape, characterised by increasingly limited public resources and growing social challenges, fundraising is emerging as a fundamental tool for Italian public bodies too. Traditionally associated with the Third Sector, fundraising is now considered to be a strategic opportunity for local authorities, schools, universities and healthcare companies.


Artificial intelligence is redefining our present and shaping the future in ways that, until a few years ago, seemed impossible to imagine. From medicine to energy, from transport to finance, AI has become a crucial element of global economic and social development. But this technological revolution is also at the centre of fierce competition among the world’s major powers, with historical implications of an economic, strategic, and geopolitical nature.

Financial intermediaries' clients are evolving in terms of the expectations and needs they express. Accustomed to a simplified user experience in other areas, where almost any operation can be carried out with just one click, they now demand the same level of usability in financial services as well.

Entrepreneurship and Strategy

In recent years, the Space Economy has become increasingly prominent in the global landscape, redefining the boundaries of the space industry and opening up new opportunities for innovative businesses, institutions and start-ups. This sector, which was once dominated exclusively by government agencies and large aerospace companies, has now opened up to a multitude of private actors, stimulating unprecedented growth. The gradual lowering of economic and technological barriers to access to space has made this area more practicable, transforming it into a new frontier of industrial and commercial development, including in Italy.

Innovation & Digital Trasformation

In recent years, the internationalisation of Italian companies has undergone a significant evolution, with an increase in exports and a consolidation of their presence in certain foreign markets. Against this backdrop, unexplored challenges and opportunities remain, which companies can seize by leveraging the value added today provided by digital - a key element that can support companies of all sizes in their expansion strategies by improving operational efficiency, optimising decisions, and promoting new business models.
