In the discussion that followed the briefing of students from the managers of the two companies, the students had the opportunity to ask questions and engage in a broader discussion on the sector of IT services in which IP.GR and IP Digital specialise, as well as discuss future trends and prospects.

Students attended with great interest the presentation which was intended to enhance their professional skills, to give them insights from a real-life working environment and give them the opportunity to learn from the knowledge and experiences of executives. IP business representatives are already planning the next study visit for our students.

Company visits like this are organised throughout the academic year for all our students aiming at bringing academic closer to the industry and give students the opportunity to see can theory is put into practice in a working setting.
