When attending the Faculty of Economics I\u00a0launched my first project which allowed young designers to produce and offer their cocktail dress collections for female students next to the graduation party. The mix of marketing, management and fashion contributed to this first start up at the age of only 21!<\/p>\n<p>My dream remained\u00a0<strong>moving to Europe to attend an MBA<\/strong>, but an interesting job opportunity had opened up in my country, which I decided to\u00a0embrace.\u00a0Later, following the birth of my daughter, I worked in the marketing departments of prominent international cosmetics companies to promote their brands in Georgia, before becoming part of an\u00a0important\u00a0automotive company.<\/p>\n<p>In\u00a0<strong>2015<\/strong>\u00a0Georgia was suddenly in the spotlight for a series of coincidences that also concerned the sector of my interest: in that year the Georgian designer\u00a0<strong>Demna Gvasalia<\/strong>\u00a0was named as the successor of Alexander Wang as Balenciaga&#8217;s new creative director. Furthermore, my country, at the crossroads of Asia and Europe, was gaining a new weight among the upcoming destinations for\u00a0<strong>international tourism<\/strong>. It seemed like the perfect time to sharpen my skills and among European Business Schools with a focus on fashion and luxury, BBS appeared to be the ideal choice to pursue this objective.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0<a href=\"\/hp\/?p=1610\"><strong>Global MBA in Design, Fashion and Luxury Goods<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0was the opportunity I had been looking for years to make that qualitative leap that I felt was now needed. Getting back to school after over a decade of work experience gave me new energy. An international environment, a splendid setting suspended between nature and art, a city full of\u00a0ideas and opportunities\u00a0were some of the ingredients that allowed me to grow up personally\u00a0and professionally.\u00a0The Faculty and the opportunities of the study program constituted a huge challenge and the Bolognese experience allowed me to develop soft skills that I had not considered, as well as having made me an authentic citizen of the world.<\/p>\n<p>My\u00a0<strong>final project<\/strong>\u00a0on the challenges and opportunities of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rosbalet.com\u00a0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Rosbalet<\/strong><\/a>, an emerging luxury shoe brand, allowed me to have a more complete picture of the sector and offered me the tools to move within an international context, making it increasingly clear to my eyes that my ultimate goal remains to acquire leadership roles\u00a0in the development of new markets.<\/p>\n<p>After the Master&#8217;s Degree, I returned to Georgia where I have been working for a year now as\u00a0<strong>Head of Beauty and Aesthetic Department at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gepha.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">JSC Gepha<\/a><\/strong>, dealing with the promotion and distribution of the leading European brands in the Caucasus region. This role, implying a constant international exposure and leadership skills would have been hardly attainable without BBS&#8217;s MBA! While further enhancing my position and visibility in my country, my ambition for the next few years is to leverage on the strong relation that I have gained with Italy and Europe to foster new projects in the luxury and fashion industry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nini Kinkladze<\/strong> &#8211; Georgia<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/hp\/?p=1610\"><strong>Global MBA in Design, Fashion and
