Never too young for business. | Daniele Manni | TEDxLakeComo

How to teach following the school program and in the same time why and how to grant a business experience to the students of a professional secondary school incubating startups based on business ideas and activity of the same students.

For 25 years DANIELE MANNI teaches computer science at the Istituto Galilei-Costa of Lecce. His background as an entrepreneur led him to devote a significant part of his lectures to topics that were not foreseen in the official curriculum programs such as change, innovation and creativity. In 2004, along with a colleague and 16 students of the school, he created “Arianoa” with the goal to incubate start-ups. Daniele has lead numerous business ventures to success. And, not surprisingly, he ended up to be a finalist at the Global Teacher Prize, the Nobel Prize for teaching.
