2010 study tour in review
(Tina Bassir, Associate Director)
Wow, what a great experience – visiting Santiago and Buenos Aires on the TMMBA Study Tour was outstanding! The final assignment for the students is to present an overview of the trip including highlights, key take-aways, photos, and I’m sure, lots of stories. Showcasing the TMMBA Study Tour is tonight at 6-8pm.
For me, this was my first big international trip; my new passport has received its first collection of stamps (from three countries in 12 days). The companies we visited were extremely interesting and represented a diverse range of industries. And it was a pleasure traveling with this group. While I have many fond memories from the trip, here is a short photo story with a few highlights:
Visiting Globant - a rapidly-growing IT company
Riding in a boat on the world's largest swimming pool (Crystal Lagoons)
Watching a sheet of metal turn into a complete car at a factory tour at Ford-Argentina. Ford has been operating in Argentina since 1913!
Eating delicious food. In Santiago, lots of fish and seafood. In Buenos Aires, steak, empanadas, and more steak.
Viewing the architecture and comparing the cities.
