DOBA Business School students successfully complete international WAB project

After ten weeks, the international virtual mobility project, Working Across Borders 2022, which included the successful participation of nine DOBA Business School bachelor and master’s students, came to an end with a closing ceremony and the announcement of the best achievements of the international teams.

Over 700 students from 14 educational institutions from all continents worked in 120 teams, taking on the role of consultants researching sustainability challenges for KONE, an international company from Finland, and developing solutions in response to three challenges:

1. How to find the balance between the goal of being physically active and the elevator/escalator business that hinders this and what is the impact on the SDG status in the country?
2. What business opportunities do you see for KONE in promoting sustainability in the city of the future for different types of users and what is the impact on the SDG status in the country?
3. How to create an organisational culture of sustainability in different departments (production, HR, finance, etc.) KONE in the selected/target country and what is the impact on the SDG status of this country?

The students made video presentations and KONE had the difficult task of choosing the best solution, the best country (target market) and business analysis, the most memorable video, the most inclusive video, and the most energetic video.

We are very proud that our student/graduate, Helena Ernoić, was part of Team 88, the winner of the best solution category.

We are proud that our student Iris Dvoršak was part of Team 32, which received the highest score from the coaches and was voted the most entertaining video. 

Congratulations to all 9 students of DOBA Business School for a successfully completed project and excellent collaboration in international teams.
