Building the Future, Together

We don’t need to look back to understand who we are. We understand it by how we look ahead. For Bocconi, the future isn’t a distant horizon — it’s part of our everyday work. A collective project built on knowledge, curiosity, and responsibility.

Being a university today means more than observing change; it means helping to shape it. It means educating people who can navigate complexity, use technology with critical awareness, and create shared value. It means doing research that doesn’t stay confined within disciplines, but engages with society and its challenges — economic, environmental, democratic, and ethical.

This is the spirit behind our Strategic Plan 2026–2030: a vision born from listening and dialogue, guiding Bocconi toward an increasingly open, international, and inclusive university. One that measures its impact not only through rankings or numbers, but through its ability to generate ideas, trust, and opportunity.

Along this path, the Bocconi community remains our greatest strength — not only those who live and work on campus every day, but also those who carry our way of thinking and acting out into the world. The first global reunion, the Homecoming, was a tangible expression of this energy: not a look back, but a step forward. Thousands of people came together to imagine the future and to say, “we’re here, and we want to be part of it.”

We close 2025 without taking stock, but with clarity and confidence. Change isn’t something that simply happens to us — it’s something we build. And Bocconi will keep doing so, as it always has: with the rigor of research, the power of ideas, and the strength of its people.

The future, as always, is something we build together.
