Business Plus: opportunities outside of the classroom

PCU partners with key International Chambers of Commerce and Professional Associations in the Czech Republic to create opportunities for students and our faculty to connect directly with working professionals.

The Business Plus initiative extends partner event invitations to motivated students who are selected by faculty to attend business briefings, seminars and lectures. Attending these events provides our students with a fantastic chance to connect with influential leaders and acquire valuable insights into current business challenges.

And for our faculty, meeting with key business leaders allows them to hear first-hand the opportunities and challenges that businesses and their employees are facing. As a result, faculty understand businesses needs and can develop relevant programme content, shaping graduates that are ready for contemporary business environments. Furthermore, our chamber and professional partners leverage our lecturing staff to deliver presentations and share their business-focussed research with their members.

The Nine Chambers evening was an amazing opportunity to meet with business leaders and chamber of commerce representatives at the beautiful Žofín Palace. The event offered a wonderful friendly atmosphere, in which I was able to meet representatives from numerous international companies as well as local ones from various industries such as technology, software and food and beverage. It was a wonderful place to discover new business opportunities and expand my network of contacts.

Adam Vilimovský, MSc International Management graduate

I had the opportunity to attend the annual meeting of the Nordic Chamber of Commerce, where I gained valuable insights into the chamber's current values and objectives. Meeting with a diverse group of business leaders at the event was an enriching experience, and I believe it has the potential to positively impact my future career aspirations.
