  • Passion Meets Innovation
    Passion meets Innovation 4. FIA Sportkonferenz in Turin Die Teilnahme an einer internationalen Konferenz ist Bestandteil des MBA- Fernstudienganges Motorsport-Management des Zweibrücker Fachbereichs Betriebswirtschaftslehre Zweibrücken . Die 4. FIA Sportkonferenz "Leidenschaft und Innovation: Die Vergangenheit, Gegenwart und Zukunft des Motorsports” unter Leitung des FIA Präsidenten Jean Todt wurde in Turin im Centro Congressi im früheren FIAT-Werk in Lingotto abgehalten. Studierende des MBA Motorsport-Management mit Studiengangleiterin Prof. Dr. Bettina Reuter (rechts) bei der FIA Sport Conference in Turin Das Gebäude erlangte durch die Auto-Verfolgungsjagd im Kino-Kassenschlager "The Italian Job" Berühmtheit, in der das Mini-Trio auf der Lingotto-Teststrecke auf dem Hausdach von Carabinieri verfolgt wird. Jetzt war es Zentrum des FIA Kongresses mit mehr als 500 Delegierten aus 116 Ländern und den ersten Studierenden des bislang weltweit einzigen MBA Studiengangs Motorsport- Management. Das für die Durchführung der MBA Fernstudiengänge verantwortliche Institut ed-media organisierte das MBA Programm in Zusammenarbeit mit dem DMSB und der FIA. Teil des Besuchsprogramms für die sechs MBA-Fernstudierenden vom Campus Nürburgring war die Einbindung in die Konferenz, die insbesondere durch die Vielzahl der hochkarätigen Motorsport- Koryphäen am Rednerpult beeindruckte. Im letzten Jahr seiner ersten vierjährigen Amtsperiode schuf FIA-Präsident Jean Todt - früher ein Weltklasse-Copilot und Teamchef, der in so unterschiedlichen Ländern wie Monaco oder Marokko gewonnen hat - das Konzept jährlicher Motorsportkonferenzen, die rund um den Erdball von einem FIA-Mitglied abgehalten werden. Seine Idee war, diese Länder mit der Vision und den Werkzeugen auszustatten, um das Motorsport-Wachstum vor Ort voranzutreiben, oder sie - wie es in manchen Gegenden der Fall ist - zu ermutigen, Wettbewerbe zu etablieren, indem man einfache Rennstrecken für Autos oder Karts baut oder sichere und nachhaltige Meisterschaften gründet.
