From Case Study to Reality (FCStR) w/ EdFluence

The third edition of FCStR was aiming to take our participants into the digital world and provide them with an overview of the different challenges and solutions available for the Chinese market.

The partner for this edition was EdFluence, an EdTech start-up, with the goal of activating 20k users in China and attracting new content creators.

From Case Study to Reality (FCStR) w/ Mattioli

For the second edition of our project we collaborated with one of the most important luxury firms in the jewelry field: Mattioli Gioielli.

The participants of FCStR 2019 had the opportunity to challenge themselves with real issues encountered by the company during its internationalization process and to put into practice their experiences and knowledge on China providing a thorough and effective business plan proposal with the support of experts from the corporate world.

From Case Study to Reality (FCStR) w/ Ferrino

From Case Study to Reality (FCStR) is a business consulting project of the TOChina Alumni network aimed at connecting with Italian SMEs interested in entering or expanding into the Chinese market.
Anna Ferrino, CEO of the outdoor firm Ferrino, welcomed the first edition of the project with the support of a dedicated team within the company. Three final projects were presented by the Alumni aiming to launch the Ferrino brand in China.

There are currently 3 different paths to join the TOChina Alumni community:

1. participants who successfully complete the CMBP - China Management & Business Program - automatically become members of the Alumni community for one year after graduating from the program;

2. students who successfully complete both the "From Case Study to Reality (FCStR)" workshop and at least a 6-month mobility program (or double-degree) promoted across Sinophone Asia as part of the Master’s Degree in International Studies (China & Global Studies) of the University of Turin are invited to join the Alumni community upon graduation;

3. students who have successfully completed the 2024 "Essential tools for managing China-Europe cross cultural business relations" laboratory and who also successfully complete at least a 6-month mobility program (or double-degree) promoted across Sinophone Asia as part of the Master’s Degree in International Studies (China & Global Studies) of the University of Turin May apply to join the Alumni community upon graduation. This third path will no longer be available from 2025 onwards.

Alumni and Alumnae are invited to support the many activities of the community through a very modest membership fee in the first five years. After five years of continuous membership they become life members, free of charge.
