Fostering interaction between businesses and universities means having better-prepared students and more competitive companies.
We firmly believe this, and in our own small way we try to encourage the exchange of resources as much as possible.

We always participate with pleasure in the SME Day, because we believe it is a good point of contact between the curiosity of young people and the daily work of businesses in their area.

In the university setting, we “opened our doors” to several students who asked us to serve as case studies for their papers, or simply to “peek” into our reality.

This resulted in a number of theses, produced by undergraduates from theUniversity of Padua, Ca’ Foscari and Roma Tor Vergata. The thesis developed for the Roman university, in particular, featured SAC Serigrafia itself and our approach to Lean Production.

The most recent collaboration was just a few months ago.
Four students from Ca’ Foscari’s Faculty of Economics came up with a business plan related to one of our investments.

The best thing about all these collaborations is that for us it means new ideas and positive contamination.
For the students, on the other hand, it is an opportunity to confront the current market, with a company in the area, with real data and objectives.

Businesses and universities working together.
Theory meeting practice.
And the result is new knowledge.
