The program covered several critical domains:
- AI marketing and business strategy
- Digital transformation and technology application
- Leadership and change management
- Financial management, tax, and corporate finance
- Design thinking, decision management, and HR management
- Sales management, strategic planning, and legal compliance
Instructors with extensive management experience led the courses. This approach helped students turn theoretical knowledge into actual business results.
What happens next for LinkQuest Academy?
With the first batch now graduated, the academy may continue to expand its high-quality corporate education. This could lead to the development of more talents with international visions and innovative thinking.
