URV Experiences

Cayo Yude Candia Quispe

“The URV Master’s Degree in Entrepreneurship and Innovation helped me to develop my abilities and obtain the tools I needed to take on the challenge and responsibility of managing a social and export company in my home region. I am currently General Manager of Cooperativa Agraria Cafetalera San Fernando Ltda. This is an association of 430 small coffee producers that contributes to the comprehensive development of its members, their families and the wider community.”

Juan David Escobar Garcia

“The URV Master’s in Entrepreneurship and Innovation gave me the tools for generating innovation programmes and policies that will become the drivers of economic and social development, thus promoting technological change, innovations, employment and the generation of capital. In my home country I have taken on important roles in both the private and the public sector in the field of innovation. In 2018, I received the Leader in innovation award from Colmena Seguros and the ORP Foundation for a project aimed at reducing occupational illness and increasing productivity through process automation. I am currently collaborating with Factories of Productivity (Fábricas de Productividad), a government programme run by Colombia Productiva and the Colombian Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Tourism in conjunction with regional bodies such as Chambers of Commerce.”

“The URV Master’s gave me all the tools and knowledge I need to successfully design and implement innovation projects.”

Gisela Costa

“The URV Master’s helped me to broaden my perspectives on the management and importance of innovation in entrepreneurial projects and society in general. It also helped me to lay the foundations I needed to create a business project in a completely unknown environment. Undoubtedly, however, what I would most like to highlight is the learning that was generated by sharing multiple hours, experiences and ideas with my professors, mentors and fellow entrepreneurs.”

Lidia Vives

“The URV Master’s in Business Administration gave me the strategic vision that is so necessary when taking decisions in the business world. As a sales manager in a totally changing digital environment, in recent months I have seen the importance of having the ability to make decisions in the strategic field. This Master’s undoubtedly provided me with the tools and knowledge I need to acquire that ability.”

Juan Pedro Lucanera

“The URV Master’s gave me tools that enabled me to grow academically and professionally. From the professional perspective, it gave me a critical insight into the decision-making processes of the companies I advise. The subjects taught on the Master’s provide a highly accurate vision of theoretical concepts applied to practical cases. This helps students to understand business realities better and therefore help companies to perform better commercially, economically and financially. In addition, the academic, professional and personal qualities of the professors who teach at the URV are undoubtedly important factors for anyone considering studying at this university”

Valeria Ferreira

“The URV Master’s in Business Management was a great choice. Their professional approach helps you to further your business knowledge and competences and compete strategically in the jobs market. At the same time, the research option gave me new opportunities, such as participating in the COFUND project, a programme funded by the European Union that has enabled me to conduct research at the highest level.”

Gerard Cabré

“The URV Master’s in Business Management enabled me to lay the foundations I need to guide my career in the business world.”

“Ambas disciplinas, Matemáticas y Computación, se complementan y me han sido útiles a la hora de realizar mi trabajo como ingeniero de software. Para ser capaces de diseñar e implementar sistemas que resuelvan estos problemas de una manera eficiente e integrable en un entorno de producción audiovisual, es necesario estudiar y comprender modelos matemáticos complejos y después implementarlos mediante las técnicas de computación adecuadas para conseguir un producto usable. Por ello, veo muy acertada la combinación de ambas disciplinas en un entorno de investigación y desarrollo para gráficos. Los efectos visuales que vemos en el cine a día de hoy son posibles gracias al trabajo espectacular de artistas y profesionales del 3D, el cual a su vez es posible, en última instancia, gracias a matemáticos e ingenieros que desarrollan nuevas y mejores soluciones software innovando constantemente.”
