Alumni of UVIC's MBA

My name is Andy Blai, and I embarked on my MBA journey at the University of Vic through CEIBA Business School, graduating in 2022. My career in the technology sector has flourished remarkably since, and I attribute much of my success to the lessons learned during my MBA. The Strategic Management and Digital Marketing courses were especially transformative for me. My capstone project focused on digital transformation strategies for SMEs, which not only sharpened my skills but also showcased my capabilities to industry leaders.

After my MBA, I stepped into a role as Chief Innovation Officer at a leading tech firm, where I lead initiatives to position our company at the forefront of sustainable technologies. This rapid advancement in my career is a testament to the practical and strategic insights I gained during my studies. The MBA equipped me with critical thinking skills and a comprehensive understanding of global business dynamics, preparing me to turn complex challenges into opportunities for growth and innovation. To current students, my advice is to leverage every project and interaction. Your time during the MBA is not just about learning; it’s about building a toolkit for your future. I maintain a strong connection with CEIBA, often helping students on their way to the University of Vic. It’s my way of giving back to the community that shaped my path, helping to inspire and cultivate the next generation of leaders.
