The 9th edition of the Open Day took place yesterday at the Auditorium della Tecnica Congress Center of Confindustria, an event designed to create dialogue between academia and the business world, aimed at freshmen of Luiss Guido Carli University. The meeting, organized by Sistemi Formativi Confindustria, saw the participation of over 300 students and represented an important opportunity for exchange and growth.
Luigi Rizzolo, President of SFC, coordinated the event, welcoming participants and kicking off a day filled with significant moments, including meetings and testimonials from prominent figures in the academic and business worlds.
Voices of Experience and Inspiration
The event offered a unique opportunity for exchange between universities and businesses, with a focus on training young professionals capable of facing global challenges. In particular, the panel of experts, which included top representatives from Confindustria and Luiss institutions, emphasized the importance of constant dialogue between the two domains to develop transferable skills and promote personal growth.
Among the speakers who enriched the day:
- Vincenzo Marinese, Vice President for Organization and Relations with Territories and Categories, Confindustria
- Paolo Boccardelli, Rector of Luiss Guido Carli University
- Rita Carisano, General Director of Luiss Guido Carli University
- Marcello Gozzi, Director of the Association Relations Division, Confindustria
- Alessandro Fontana, Director of the Research Center, Confindustria
A particularly significant moment was the speech by the General Director of Confindustria, Maurizio Tarquini, who shared some inspiring reflections with the young participants. Among these, a quote that stirred great emotion: "Happiness can be found even in the darkest times, if one only remembers to turn on the light." (Albus Silentio)
This served as a powerful invitation not to give up in difficult moments and to rediscover happiness through our inner resilience, as a symbol of hope even in the darkest periods.
Conclusions and Reflections
The day concluded with speeches by Massimiliano Ricci, General Director of Unindustria Roma - Frosinone - Latina - Rieti - Viterbo, and Eleonora Faina, General Director of Anitec-Assinform. Both illustrated the role of their respective associations, one territorial and the other industry-based, conveying the message that critical thinking and youthful enthusiasm are essential to fuel innovation and growth, contributing to the progress of both academia and the professional world.
Open Day 2025 thus confirmed its role as a bridge between university and business, promoting constant and productive dialogue between the two worlds, with the aim of training capable professionals ready to face the challenges of the future.
