TIAS introduces TIAS8hr

On 15 October, TIAS School for Business and Society (the business school of Tilburg University and Eindhoven University of Technology) will add a strong, innovative new format to its portfolio: TIAS8hr. A series of one-day programs on the latest topics impacting business and society, TIAS8hr will provide ambitious, highly driven leaders, managers, professionals and experts with the tools they need to actively transform their businesses.

TIAS8hr consists of a series of short, high-quality programs that are both data-driven and highly interactive. Each program will focus on in-depth content, innovation, and wider socioeconomic trends and technological developments.

Powerful new format

With TIAS8hr, leading experts and professors translate theory into practice, ensuring participants are ideally prepared for current – and future – developments. The format consists of a high-impact mix of lectures, interaction and self-study and utilizes the “Prep, Step, and Leap” method to ensure maximum results within an eight-hour timeframe. In addition, TIAS8hr offers participants valuable access to a network of other professionals who share their drive and ambition.
