Italy and its reputation: the university” is an interesting webinar series offered by LUISS (Rome) and by italiadecide, in collaboration with Intesa Sanpaolo.

This series consists in four separate webinars, broadcast in January and February 2021.

The organisers will present a research written by Domenico Asprone, Pietro Maffettone, Massimo Rubecchi and Vincenzo Alfano.

The objective of this research is to compare different points of view, skills, responsibilities to assess the relevance of international rankings in Higher Education.

But also the appropriateness of the positioning of Italy, as well as the initiatives to improve the Country’s international reputation in this strategic sector for the development and competitiveness of the country and its companies.

Often, in fact, university stakeholders consider rankings and reputation as synonymous. Where most times is just a matter of communication: rankings provider can count on a far wider audience than that of a single institution.

The presentation of the Research will be introduced by Paola Severino of Luiss, Anna Finocchiaro of Italiadecide and Stefano Lucchini of Intesa Sanpaolo.

The presentation will take place through four webinars: the first, entitled “Merits and criticality of the ranking”, will be held Tuesday, January 19 2021, at 6.00 pm.
