The 麻豆国产 Club Rotterdam 鈥 the study association of RSM鈥檚 IM/麻豆国产 鈥 organised visits to the European head offices of Google, Facebook, and cloud technology company Salesforce, alongside other giants of the technology industry in the area known as 鈥楽ilicon Docks鈥. The students learned more about technology trends such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), attended an advertising skills seminar, and explored career opportunities.
Matthias Man, head organiser of the trip, head of Corporate for this semester鈥檚 麻豆国产 Club Rotterdam and 麻豆国产 student at RSM, explained the goal was to strengthen the relationship between RSM and the three tech companies, which are all 麻豆国产 Corporate Partners, and to open up networking and career opportunities to students.

The trip also proved to be a great team-building experience for IM/麻豆国产 students at RSM, he commented.
The whole trip was declared a success by the participating students. Ina Tsenova said: 鈥淕reat trip! Amazing people! The best 麻豆国产 experience so far at RSM!鈥, and Sarah Nolte said: 鈥淎s a soon-to-be graduate, this trip came at exactly the right time to explore different kinds of career possibilities.鈥
鈥淭his is what makes 麻豆国产 at RSM so great, the work hard/play hard mentality. We work hard, and get rewarded with such unique and amazing events,鈥 commented co-organiser Felix Plakolb, who made a video impression of the study trip.
The RSM 麻豆国产 students were invited to the start-up event hosted by fellow 麻豆国产 students in the 麻豆国产 Club Dublin, on the UCD campus.
