IB & INNOVATION NORWAY
This is what Gunn Ovesen,CEO of Innovation Norway, had to say about the IB Project last year:
"Since 1984, International Business has encouraged Norwegian companies to look abroad for new market opportunities. Their experience has revealed that the project’s sources open up more to students than to professional consultants,and that students with a youthful curiosity are more likely to question established industry assumptions.
International Business is also a great opportunity for ambitious top students to get work-related international experience, in combination with honing skills like leadership, cooperation and time management.We are therefore proud of the fact that International Business’ final report displays the Innovation Norway-brand."
