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.
Sustainability & Impact

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.

Energy Management & Ecological Transition

In a world increasingly marked by the effects of climate change, water management is becoming one of the most urgent priorities for governments, businesses and institutions. The so-called “water crisis” is no longer a phenomenon confined to distant or developing countries: it also closely concerns Italy and the rest of Europe, where water scarcity and the obsolescence of infrastructure are compromising the security of supply, the quality of the resource and the efficiency of its use.


In the socio-economic landscape in which we live, characterised by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, purpose - an organisation’s deepest raison d’être - is emerging as an essential strategic lever for addressing change. This is not an abstract ideal to be framed on a company wall, but an organisational principle that, if authentic and rooted, can become a powerful engine for internal alignment, employee motivation, innovation and positive impact.

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.
