A warm welcome to the Maastricht Business Days 2010! My name is Benedikt Rothstein, I am 24 years old and the President of the current MBD Board. Building on my Bachelor in International Business, which I also obtained in Maastricht, I am currently finishing my Master in International Business in Finance. Driven by the fascination of organizing a professional event like the MBD with its amazing reputation and size, I became the President of this Board. My task is to guide our team in realizing a great recruitment event for both students and companies, where among others, I am responsible for the communication with the external stakeholders of our organization. Having a great team, I am confident that the Maastricht Business Days will again become a huge success and I am looking forward to welcome you on the 2nd and 3rd of March 2010!

Hello Everyone, I am Inge Uriot, 23 years old, and study the International Business Master in Strategy and Innovation. I studied in Haarlem, Berlin and Nottingham, for my Bachelors and am currently completing my Master Thesis. Besides writing my thesis I have taken the responsibility for Operations of the Maastricht Business Days 2010, where it is my task to make sure that daily operations, including for example catering and scheduling, are running without any trouble. Organising the MBD is a unique opportunity to enhance my organising skills and is at the same time a great experience to work with a great enthusiastic team and together organise an amazing successful event. I am looking forward to all what is to come and hope to see you at the MBD 2010!

Be well greeted, everyone. My name is Jan Roberto Rohde and with my 27 years of age I am the oldest member in the MBD Board 2010. After finishing my Bachelor studies with a semester abroad in Mexico, I started my Master in IB Finance in September 2009. I became an active member of FS Focus during my time as a bachelor student (International Business: Finance & Marketing), where I organized the London Banking Tour 2008 and helped out in the planning process of the 2009 Ski Trip. As an External Affairs Coordinator in the MBD Board 2010, one of my tasks next to the acquisition of German companies is the communication between the MBD board and the firms. I joined the MBD Board as I saw a personal challenge in its organization and the chance of learning. My objective is to create a successful event for all participants - with a diversified range of companies and motivated students. I am looking forward to see you at the Maastricht Business Days 2010!

Welcome to the Maastricht Business Days 2010! My name is Julia Troll and I am proud to say that I am the PR of the MBD Board 2010. I am 21 years old and from Cologne, Germany. After travelling for one year in Australia, I started my Bachelor in International Business a year ago and decided, that studying alone does not provide me with the right understanding and experience I want to gain. So I looked for a project which comprises the tasks that I am interested in and further gives me the possibility to learn from real business situations. What I have found was an energetic group with a huge willingness to create a fantastic event, I wanted to be part of. As the PR, I am responsible for the website, posters, flyers and everything else which encourages the communication to students and companies. The MBD is a great event, connecting students and companies, and is worth to work for! I am excited to meet you soon at the MBD 2010!
