Our latest "Student Life" stories

A university applied project at the International University of Monaco has evolved into a real-world production in the entertainment industry. TV Monaco has officially commissioned MONACO INSIDERS, an innovative interview format developed by a team of IUM students.

On May 27th, the International University of Monaco (IUM) transformed into a dynamic hub of innovation as seven student teams stepped into the role of agile brand agencies. Introduced by Professor Kasha Minor and Dr. Annalisa Tarquini-Poli, Program Director, alongside the initiative’s coordinator Valentina Cangiano, the seminar’s grand finale challenged students to develop and pitch real-world luxury strategies.

At the Heart of Monaco’s Motorsport Ecosystem:

The Principality of Monaco is universally recognized as the undisputed capital of motorsport. But for students enrolled in the MSc in Sports Business Management at the International University of Monaco, this prestigious ecosystem is far more than a glamorous backdrop, it is a dynamic, open-air classroom.

In the world of high finance, theory is only as valuable as its execution. This month, the IUM Finance Society proved that IUM students aren’t just observing the markets, they are leading them. We are proud to announce that our team has secured 1st place at the EuroPitch European University Trading Competition, finishing at the top of the leaderboard with a commanding score of 82 points.

At the International University of Monaco (IUM), we believe that the sports industry cannot be fully understood through textbooks alone. It must be felt, observed, and experienced in the field. This philosophy of experiential learning was put into high gear last week as our Sports Business Management (SBM) students embarked on an intensive study trip to London, one of the world’s most influential sports capitals.

At IUM, the classroom is only the beginning. We believe that to truly master International Management, students must engage directly with the world’s most sophisticated business ecosystems. Recently, our MSc students traveled to London for a study trip that epitomizes our commitment to Experiential Learning, turning high-level theory into tangible professional insight.

As part of IUM’s Career Week, an initiative designed to connect students with industry professionals, the university welcomed Guido Giovannelli, an experienced leader in the luxury automotive sector with over 30 years of international career experience.

The event offered students a valuable opportunity to gain first-hand insights into one of the most competitive and evolving industries, while also reflecting on their own future career paths.

IUM warmly thanks its students involved in projects that help the community.

Charity work is important for a university for the simple reason that such activities cultivate a sense of
community and mission, while promoting public benefit.
