The Rome Business Game is the simulation dedicated to the world of business, international markets, marketing, and business management. It engages students and graduate students interested in economic matters, excited to test themselves getting in touch with the most important business and economic realities, and it is one of the most important project of the International Careers Festival that will take place in Rome from the 24th to 27th of March 2018. Apply here!
With around 300 places and 30 scholarships available by the Giovani nel Mondo Association, participants will have the opportunity to meet business and marketing experts, acting as judges, as they propose innovative solutions/products to challenges presented by those same experts. They will also be developing and refining a set of soft skills which are often overlooked yet essential for career success: learning the techniques for proper business management, analysis and insight of business dynamics, team working, and practical problem solving.
The Business Game was born in the fifties with the dual purpose of, on the one hand, providing students interested in working within companies a practice-oriented alternative to a traditional, solely theoretical education and, on the other hand, to test the capacity of students and interns in an environment which is as realistic as possible.Therefore, it is both a game in which teams compete in order to achieve a common, economic objective, and, simultaneously, a model that simulates the realities of business and the market which it addresses.
Some companies made great contribution to the previous editions of the Rome Business Game such as Alitalia and Deloitte.
The Rome Business Game allows participants to take part in a truly multicultural environment, working in English and developing managerial and technical skills which are extremely important in today’s competitive international job market. Managers of our partner companies will present practical business cases to the participants who, divided into teams, have to propose a project, such as the launch of a new product, innovative marketing campaign or practical solution(s) to a company-wide problems, etc. The winning team has the possibility of an interview with a human resources manager of one of our partner companies or even an internship.
Participants are divided into two teams:
The “Junior” team is open to undergraduate/bachelor students and those in the first year of their Master’s while the “Expert” team is for those about to graduate or that have already graduated.
This year Lidl Italia and Vueling are the most important official partners of the project which will offer delegates some new exciting challenges and precious opportunities to start an internship in their agencies.
The Rome Business Game is strongly recommended for students of: economics, business administration, management engineering, computer engineering, marketing, polytechnic universities.
Applications are open here!
Luca Marco Giraldin Von Lahnstein is the Program Director of Rome Business Game for the third consecutive year.

Tutors will be in charge of the preparation of the teaching materials to give to the participants, they will coordinate everything with the Director of Programs and the Executive Director, and assist work groups during the event.
