The Future of PWN Nice Côte d’Azur Partnerships
During 2023, we dedicated our efforts to enhancing our strong relationships with our local historical Partners such as Amadeus and EDHEC. As part of our renewed collaboration with the EDHEC Global MBA Program, we aimed to establish a team of Ambassadors/volunteers focused on Partnerships.
Our objective was to introduce fresh perspectives using updated PWN Nice Côte d’Azur presentation tools. The initial phase of this project is currently in progress. Subsequently, we plan to share this initiative widely and cultivate new connections with additional companies. We aim to continue to organize collaborative and high-quality events as part of our partnerships and expand our range of Sponsors to enhance communication for our key events.
For 2024, to uphold and advance this strategy, we are considering reinforcing our VP Partnerships with internal volunteers.
Partnerships is SEEKING Volunteers! Feel free to reach out to us at: partners@pwnnice.net
