In June, as part of the Financial Management course (taught at the International Business and Management program), an open lecture was held with the participation of Olga Nikolaevna Voronova, Head of the Marketing Department of JSC Lengiprotrans. Practical aspects of working with investors and creditors were discussed at the lecture. Great attention was paid to preparing for pitching - presenting investment projects in the format of short presentations. The recommendations made during this open lecture were then applied by the students as part of the defense of projects that took place in the format of a 5-minute pitching.
