Founded in 2016, Business & Arts is Bocconi’s first student association that acts as an incubator for innovation, creativity and collaboration, by bringing together international students with a shared passion for art & design. Over the past year, Business&Arts has become a central actor in championing the University’s creative sphere as well as cultivating a lifestyle of aesthetic appreciation, creative exploration and cultural engagement. Through our interaction with the student body of Bocconi, we aspire to create a community that not only understands the value of design-thinking in a corporate context, but also pushes students to see their pursuits in an alternative, creative light. Through our events, we aim to engage students in a productive dialogue and offer nuanced commentary on important matters. By bringing together people from different academic and career paths, we’re able to provide insight on the art industry’s inner workings and analyse its advantages, its mistakes and its potential for improvement through different perspectives. You can find an archive of our past events here . Through our articles, we strive to encompass the best of Art, Design, Cinema, Photography and Style as well as create Weekly reads, Features and Interviews with the aim of inspiring our readers and urging them to become design conscious, culturally informed and innovative.
