Richard Boly for President

I was reading Fabrizio Capobianco's blog when I found this interview to Richard Boly. He's been doing a lot for italian entrepreneurship, toghether with the US Ambassador Ronald Spogli... and they're not even Italians! In the last years he's been working full time on the Partnership For Growth program. So Fabrizio ironically proposed to ask him to run for the upcoming it… Continue

ciao Andrea,
sono Eleonora, studentessa di 23 anni laureanda in Direzione aziendale presso la Facoltà di economia di Bologna e vincitrice dello study tour 2008. In agosto, verrò quindi in Silicon Valley con Marenco! Ti scrivo, in quanto, terminato lo Study tour, avrei deciso di fermarmi un mesetto e mezzo in California, diciamo fino a fine ottobre: essendo questa la mia prima esperienza all'estero, mi piacerebbe sfruttarla il più possibile, iscrivendomi ad una scuola di inglese per perfezionare la lingua!(la questione lavoro è al momento accantonata causa mille traversie col visto!)
Maria Silva (un'altra ragazza del network) mi ha consigliato come scuola la St. giles di san francisco, in market street!tu la conosci? ne hai sentito parlare bene? avresti altre scuole a San Francisco, da consigliarmi?
Paolo marenco mi ha detto di rivolgermi a te soprattutto per l'alloggio: io avrei bisogno di una stanza per un mesetto (dall7 settembre al 12 ottobre circa)..Paolo mi ha detto di cercare a Berkeley..tu hai qualche dritta da darmi? ci sono dei siti? trovo sul posto? è fattibile affittare solo un mese?
grazie mille, Buon weekend,
e scusa per tutte le domande..:))
Eleonora

Ciao Andrea!
I looked on your profile and I think that it's very interesting. I would like to ask you for advice. But at first let me introduce myself. Currently I'm finishing Master in Sociology of Economy and Market Research/Marketing in Milan at Università Cattolica and I want to write thesis with researches about viral marketing and viral loops as trends in global marketing. I think that above all US and particularly Silicon Valley, where this phenomenon was born, is the right place.
This summer I'm going with Paolo Marenco to Silicon Valley for Study Tour so it can be large chance for me to familiarize myself with the topic. But to do researches I'm looking for thesis internship or stage. Unfortunately my university doesn't have that kind of programs, so I must find the place alone.
If you have any information about companies, research centers or university labs working in the field of market/economy and computer sciences (for ex. interdisciplinary labs but of course not only) or supporting students for thesis internships in this fields please let me know.
GRAZIE!
A presto!

Since the first day I joined this website I told myself "I've already seen this guy, but where??" Now I remember... Weren't you in London during a study tour, something like, I don't know, 8 or 9 years ago?! If yes we've also been hosted by the same family right?
