Her Voice is back, and for the third episode of the podcast\u2019s new season, we had the honour to speak with <\/strong>Beatrice Borgia<\/strong><\/a>, one of Italy\u2019s most influential women in 2022 according to <\/strong>Forbes Italia<\/strong><\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a Ph.D. in genetic engineering under her belt and an alumna of ESCP\u2019s EMBA programme, Beatrice Borgia has over ten years of experience working in innovative companies across the tech sector. Her career is marked by a continuous quest to get out of her comfort zone and create a positive impact for others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Beatrice Borgia is the chief corporate development officer of Teoresi Group, an international engineering services company that supports companies in the creation of projects with the most advanced technologies, as well as the president of the board for the Turin Piedmont Film Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How have these diverse experiences affected her approach to innovation? Let\u2019s find out in the third episode of Her Voice Season Two. <\/p>\n\n\n

Getting out of one\u2019s comfort zone can have the most positive impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When asked what makes her get up in the morning, Beatrice Borgia is categorical: \u201cA lot of caffeine, and the chance to generate value for the community in a tangible way, whatever community we’re talking about, whether it is the company I work for, my team, or my children.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout her career in genetic engineering and MedTech, to AgTech, to now holding an executive position in an international engineering services company, Beatrice Borgia has never lost her commitment to having a positive impact through her work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, her path, which has seen many changes over the years, was not straightforward, as she explains: \u201cThe most impactful decision I took from a professional standpoint was to move from a corporate environment to a startup one right after my EMBA. I truly took a leap in the dark by leaving the beaten track in favour of something uncertain. This was driven by the fact that during the EMBA, I had heard over and over that in order to become a better leader, you also need to have that entrepreneurial spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The innovative mind\u2019s way of creating value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Having managed innovation across sectors and companies of all sizes, Beatrice Borgia\u2019s  definition of innovation goes beyond pure \u201cscientific progress\u201d: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cInnovation can be defined as something different that creates value. It isn’t just the work of engineers and scientists, nor is it limited to new product development. It all starts with the right intuition and right insights.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to develop the right mindset or culture that will nurture innovation, Beatrice Borgia has a few pieces of advice: \u201cYou have to be open to failure, as it teaches resilience, inspires positive changes and provides new perspectives. But your environment should as well support creative thinking, and, for that, diversity and cross-fertilization are key.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
