We invite you to a unique event! There are moments when education ceases to be just a transfer of knowledge. It becomes a conversation about the world – about how we understand the economy, how we make decisions and what happens when reality begins to overtake the models that were supposed to describe it. The SGH Open Day × Thinking Zone × Thinking InBusiness is just such a space. It is a meeting for young people facing the choice of further educational path, as well as for parents and teachers who want to better understand the changing world of economics, technology and competences of the future. Participants of the event will take part in lectures, talks and a discussion panel led by academic lecturers, researchers and business practitioners. It will be an opportunity to look at the modern economy from different perspectives; from the financial system and business models to the social consequences of technology development.
