My experience at the MSc Maritime at Kedge was a fundamental milestone in my career. It not only was my first abroad academic experience, but it has as well provided me with the necessary insight in the industry to successfully start my Start-Up, WINIM, that needed a complex logistic and commercial network. And the technical knowledge was not the only aid it gave me to do it: I gained other essential skills such as negotiation, innovative mindset or a broad and flexible business approach. Moreover, I could be said that the MSc helped me sign my first investors, as they valued that I already had an international experience, and I could easily cope with other cultural environments if they were interested in expanding WINIM to different horizons. It is that mix between academic excellence and the international, business-oriented perspective of the MSc that gave KEDGE.

I have always been passionante about the sports business, this is why I joined this programme in 2021. After KEDGE, I found a full-time position in Paris at Octagon France, on the Olympic Games 2024 project, where I help a partner activate their rights. I liked the content of the programme, every subject on the agenda was interesting to me. Also, I really admired the faculty's experience. To me, this is the best programme in sports. In the future, I am keen to stay in France but when you work in the sports industry, it is key to be open for everything and take opportunities. I would advise future MSc students to come in advance, be open-minded, learn the language and stay curious.
