Period

Learning outcomes
The main object of the course is to prepare the students to understand the mechanisms of laws and of trades that companies face to enter into cross-border markets and how to draft business agreements to limit or to prevent risks or losses. Essential guidelines of the course are the awareness of risks arising from cross-border business activities, as well as the early risk management. Starting from the point of view on how to manage the risk in an international context, the course will examine some types of commercial contracts that companies use to enter into foreign markets (e.g. sales contract, distribution agreement, know-how licensing agreement, consignment stock) and other contracts that are essential to prevent or to limit compensations or losses (e.g. confidentially agreement, guarantees). Furthermore, the implementation of the principle of freedom of establishment, the main company governance systems (particularly the latin system, the one-tier and two-tier system) and the principle of the single undertaking will be also analysed. Students will be active part of lessons and of the course itself. Projects will be assigned to students who will examine and present the project by using slides. A written report will be needed as well. At the end of the course students will show to be able to understand and manage companies’ internationalisation with the twofold aim of evaluating and preventing the risk with reference to the tools analysed during the course.

Examination Methods
The didactic material will be made available on the e-learning platform throughout the course itself.
The final test will be carried out in an oral test.
The projects prepared and discussed in class by the students are part of the program of the course and will be asked both in the written and oral exam.
By reference to the oral test: one question will concern the above-mentioned projects. The attending students are allowed to discuss their own project. The non-attending students can choose and discuss one project among the ones carried out during the present course.
In any case, the students are to be knowledgeable about every project developed during the course, given that the Professor will ask about the other projects too.

The call for applications will be published around September 2021 or later in the University web page on double degrees. The choice of students to be admitted is made during the first semester of the first year, through a multi-stage process:
- a selection of students based on the results achieved in their bachelor degree, on their CV and on a motivational interview. Following this selection, the ranking of students "admitted under condition" will be published;
- an ongoing confirmation of the above ranking, based on the academic achievement of the students in the first part of their studies at the University of Verona. Specifically, are confirmed the students "admitted under condition" which - at the end of the first semester of the first year - have achieved a weighted average score greater than or equal to 24 and a number of credits not lower than the average of the cohort of students enrolled in the first year are taken into consideration).
The ranking of selected and confirmed students will be unique and the choice of destination - Bamberg or Bordeaux - will be made starting with the first classified student, then the second and so on.
Finally, the students selected and confirmed will participate in the call to obtain the Erasmus scholarships reserved for the assigned location.
