« How Global Education Model Changes How the World Learns - Maurizio de Francisis »
In Chapter 16 of 19 in his 2010 Capture Your Flag interview with host Erik Michielsen, education entrepreneur and Global Campus (www.globalcampus.com) founder Maurizio de Franciscis shares how he built a business case to unite developing country governments and their top high school students with a global university and corporate sponsor network. By putting talent in touch with opportunity, collaboration happens automatically. The Internet enables this collaboration by creating an online marketplace and providing the matchmaking communication to allow participant needs to be met and value to be exchanged. Before founding Global Campus, de Franciscis worked at General Electric. He graduated from Universita degli Studi di Roma - La Sapienza - and earned his MBA from INSEAD.
