In line with the name of the award, it is a precious distinction: it builds prestige and strengthens credibility. The Forbes Diamond Award opens the door to cooperation with other recognized companies. It is an opportunity to initiate business collaborations and exchange experience, which is crucial in the research and educational activity of the university’.
