Dear reader, AIESEC is an Organization existing since more than 60 years. How can a student driven organization live continuously for more than 60 years and grow relentlessly till becoming the largest in the world? This question has been always with me during my experience in the Association without leading me to a unique answer, but probably I found a solution to this question just at the end of my life in AIESEC, a surprising solution. Indeed, the biggest strength of this Organization seems to be exactly what at first sight externally seems its biggest weakness: every year an AIESEC experience ends to leave space to another one. Every year a young AIESECer from anywhere in the world finishes is mandate so that another member after him will continue what have been done. Every year this Organization renews itself. What is possible to do in one year, 12 months? Many things? Few things? Obviously 12 months seem to be enough to build up something that will be preserved in time and will become part, like the piece of an endless mosaic, of the history of AIESEC.

Davide Moleti Member Committee President AIESEC Italy 2008/2009

The AIESEC Italy 2008/2009 described in this Annual Report represents nothing else that one of these “pieces”, even if characterized by unique happenings, emotions and feelings. Who lived personally the AIESEC Italy 2008/2009 had the chance to be part of a special experience thanks to:

the Ambition, demonstrated throughout the projects at international level that made Italy a referring point within the global network of AIESEC; throughout the new strategies that led towards an improvement of the structure of the Association and especially of the culture of our members; throughout the numerous collaborations with relevant Organizations and the approach to prominent personalities of our country; the Growth, realized within the 08/09 term, that marked memorable results in the main functional areas (international exchanges, members, leadership opportunities, external positioning, etc.);

the Criticality, of the term 2008/2009. A year which the main projects and dreams of AIESEC Italy have been realized and which the Global Financial Crisis got life. But all this it’s just thanks to an entire generation of AIESECers that believed in the concept of the “Road not Taken”:

“…Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” (Robert Frost)

“

Challenge individually to have an impact as unity

”

A concept whereby if you really want to make the difference, you have to chose the road that the others didn’t take, the most impervious, because only in this way you can grow. AIESEC Italy 2008/2009 chose to grow and that’s why it faced many challenges that made its path very hard, but at the same time full of satisfactions. 4

About AIESEC

and Global Networks Map AIESEC 2010 “Every day, AIESEC is enabling the development of agents of positive change who create the needed impact in society. Our rapidly growing network connects high potential people around the world to generate an increasing volume of AIESEC Experiences. Every member in our thriving local and global communities of learning completes a lifechanging AIESEC Experience. Our contribution makes us the first choice amongst young people and organizations for activating leadership.”

What is AIESEC? AIESEC is a global, non-political, independent, not-for-profit organization run by students and recent graduates of institutions of higher education. Our members are interested in world issues, leadership and management. AIESEC does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, gender, sexual orientation, creed, religion, national, ethnic or social origin.

What we envision? Peace and fulfillment of humankind’s potential.

Our Impact Our international platform enables young people to explore and develop

their leadership potential for them to have a positive impact in society.

The Way We Do It AIESEC provides its members with an integrated development experience (The AIESEC Experience) comprised of leadership opportunities, international internships and participation in a global learning environment. See more about the AIESEC Experience here

Our Values Our values provide a way for the collective leadership of AIESEC to encourage common norms of behavior across our global network.

Activating Leadership We lead by example and inspire leadership through our activities. We take full responsibility for developing the leadership potential of our members.

Demonstrating Integrity We are consistent and transparent

in our decisions and actions. We fulfil our commitments and conduct ourselves in a way that is true to our ideals.

Acting Sustainably We act in a way that is sustainable for our organization and society. Our decisions take into account the needs of future generations. 5

How we develop

talents

In this program, all members go through a formal introduction to the organization to connect them with the purpose, values and impact of AIESEC. Members then take on responsibility virtual or physical, in some area of operations and activity. Further on, members have

the option to take on a leadership role, leave for an internship, or both. The final step of the AIESEC Experience is to head for the future - to wrap up the skills, inspiration, and contacts gained from AIESEC to have a positive impact in society.

Aiesec offers a youth-driven significant experience to its members. AIESEC is an organization run by youth for youth that enables its members to live a strong experience that might change them on a personal level and drive a positive impact on societies. Our experience is comprised of a global learning environment, leadership opportunities and international internships. Through those three key aspects our members become top talents when they leave the organization. The structured program offered to all members of AIESEC in over 100 countries is called “The AIESEC Experience”.

KEY PRINCIPLES OF THE AIESEC EXPERIENCE: Taking and active role

AIESEC has an incredible platform; however, it is ultimately up to the individual to take full advantage of the opportunities offered.

Increasing capacity

AIESEC provides young people with the opportunity to increase theoretical knowledge and practical experience in a wide-range of functional and soft skills. AIESEC provides young people with the opportunity to create a strong and global network to support them in their personal and professional pursuits.

Building a network

AIESEC supports young people in clarifying and expanding their ambitions through mentorship, personal vision exercises and an inspiring environment.

Developing self awareness and personal vision

AIESEC “shakes up” the way young people see the world through intense experiences such as conferences, working abroad, and engaging in diverse environments.

Challenging worldview 6

THE GLOBAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

Leadership opportunities

We offer our member the opportunity to lead a team of minimum 3 people for more than 3 months to reach a common objective. Positions in the local or national Executive Board are covered even for one year and are an intense learning experience about leadership and teamwork.

International Internships

Our members can go for an internship in one of our member countries around the world. The professional work experience and the experience in another country and culture is one of the biggest opportunity for the development of our members.

At the end of their experience, the members become officially AIESEC Alumni. Our Alumni, their competencies and contribution to society is the most tangible proof of the impact that we have as an organization and the kind of people that the AIESEC Experience develops. The network of the AIESEC alumni is comprised of about 800.000 people globally. It means 58 generations of people, who know AIESEC closely, who contributed to the organization themselves and are now change agents in the corporate, institutional and noncorporate sectors.

among each other thanks to the virtual platform MyAIESEC.net that represents an ad hoc alternative to the famous current virtual networking systems.

“I support the valuable activities of AIESEC in Finland and internationally. Therefore I encourage organizations and companies to find out more about AIESEC and support the work of these young people” Joining AIESEC as a young student in Finland in 1963, was immersed in an international environment that pre-empted his future as a global peacemaker. With his role in peaceful negotiations, Martti Ahtisaari has embodied bold leadership, forging international co-operation in seemingly intractable circumstances. Reflecting on his early engagement with AIESEC, Martti Ahtisaari welcomes the world to work more closely with young people in the pursuit of peace.

This platform enables all the alumni to have an account which allows them to receive relevant news about AIESEC, to find people in the network, to offer or look for opportunities (events, jobs, business, etc), to make on-line donations in order to support specific AIESEC entities and initiatives. To join the virtual network of AIESEC alumni just connect to www.myaiesec.net and register as Alumni.

As an AIESEC alumnus, Martti Ahtisaari joins the over 800,000 former members, including fellow statesmen Cavaco Silva, Helmut Kohl, Janez Drnovsek, Junichiro Koizumi, Jan Eliasson and Gerry Adams. Today AIESEC has grown into a leading platform for young people to truly discover their leadership potential—and a real training ground for the world’s next influential leaders. Today AIESEC alumni can stay in touch with the organization and 7

The Italian network of AIESEC is led every year by a Member Committee that has the role to transmit the global direction of the association and to support the development of the local entities through national strategies and initiatives. The Member Committee of AIESEC in Italy is located in Milan and it is composed of fulltime and part-time members who are still university students but have the opportunity to live a unique high-level professional and cultural experience in the nonprofit sector. This year the Member Committee was formed by seven full-time and four part-time members: the National Support Team. The full-time members were responsible of strategically managing the functional areas (Exchange, External Relations, Finance, Communication and Talent Management) while the National Support Team was composed by three NST Development and one NST Training. The NST Development were mainly

AIESEC in Italy today is composed by 21 Local Committees which represent the real soul of the Organization. All the strategies promoted at international level and the activities of the Member Committee would be useless without the commitment and the passion of those people who are operatively responsible of the performances of our organization at local level and especially of their leaders, the Local Committee Presidents. 8

dedicated to the coaching of the Local Committees and to the member education during national congresses. The NST Training was responsible to structure an education strategy for the members and to develop trainers that could facilitate knowledge in the local realities.

AIESEC IN ITALY 2008.2009 in numbers EXCHANGE AREA

From the 1st July 2008 to the 30th June 2009 (AIESEC 08/09 term) AIESEC in Italy realized in the Exchange area the highest performance since 2005, with a 53% growth in exchanges realized and a 98% growth in exchanges raised. This achievement is mainly due to the outstanding work of our local entities: In 2007/2008 AIESEC in Italy was counting 11 Local Committees that were not achieving the minimum criteria of 4 exchanges in the term. Thanks to the strong work, together of LC and MC, in the term 2008/2009 we lowered this negative number to 7 and we decreased the number of Local Committees not performing at all in exchange from 4 to 1.

CONFERENCES AND EVENTS

The 2008/2009 term of AIESEC in Italy will be remembered in the future also for the high number of internal and external events organized by our country. In only one year 15 AIESEC congresses took place in Italy: 3 International, 7 National and 5 Regional. These moments were not merely internal AIESEC meetings but represented also important

occasions to open AIESEC to the external world. Besides the AIESEC congresses AIESEC in Italy organized this year also almost 70 public events, 5 of them at national level, involving more than 50 Organizations, among Multinationals, SMEs, Institutions, NGOs and Media.

MEMBERS

Today AIESEC in Italy counts more than 500 members and 126 of them this year lived a Leadership Experience managing a project team, a functional area, a local or a national executive board. A proof of the constant increasing value of our members is given by the number of Italian AIESEC members who participated this year to the exchange program after their leadership experience, 214% more than the previous year.

Working close

to the Local Committees

One of the main focus areas of the Member Committee this year was the Organizational Structure and that means the development of the local entities and of the organizational culture in each member of AIESEC in Italy.

Based on eXchange (PBoX). The main work consisted in supporting physically and virtually the Local Committees, coaching and providing education to the project managers all over Italy to enable them to manage their teams to reach personal and professional development in the achievement of the PBOX goals.

STRATEGY

According to that, the Member Committee 2008/2009 launched a “Cluster Strategy” aimed to divide the Local Committees in different groups based on their performances and potential, in order to customize the support

ization of the Sicilian SMEs, thanks to the work of 13 students coming from different countries and the involvement of local enterprises and institutions.

Among all the projects of the year we want to mention in particular: the “Western Europe and Northern America Leadership Development Seminar” and “Western Europe

That’s why this year a new role has been introduced, the NST Training, which was in charge of organizing and running educational events for potential trainers called “Train the Trainers” seminars, and structuring the involvement of

EXTENSION

After almost one year of enduring efforts and showing passion and commitment, in occasion of the 2nd National Congress in May 2009, AIESEC in Italy ratified the official opening of the Local Committee of AIESEC Bozen/Bolzano. Thanks to the strong commitment and pioneering ambition of two students of the University of Bozen/Bolzano, Andreas Hauptenbuchner and Michael Bayr, and the support of the Member Committee, AIESEC started to operate in Bozen/Bolzano attracting students from all the faculties and preparing them to work on concrete activities. Since October 2008, when Bozen/Bolzano informally joined the Italian plenary, the increasing group of students successfully satisfied all the requirements to become formally part of the network of AIESEC in Italy. 12

TALENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM PARTNER

National Initiatives

Talent Development Program It is a customized internship program that brings to Italy quality global graduates from within our network of over 100 countries and 1100 universities, for a period of up to 12 month. Today’s leading organizations recognize that in a competitive global environment talented people will have a significant impact upon results. The long term survival of business is crucially dependent on accessing talented young leaders from across the globe that can join an organization and create success through the right combination of skills, innovation and attitude. AIESEC is an easy & cost effective way to access to a global pool of young talent. By join the TDP Program, a company is supporting the development of young people who are striving to develop themselves into socially responsible, entrepreneurial, cultural sensitive, active learners.

Consolidating TDP in Italy

AIESEC in Italy started promoting the TDP Program during the first semester of the year 2004 and during these years we offered and finalized several partnerships with national and multinational companies. Flexibility, listening carefully and learning from every step we took were key points for success. A very important step was to improve the quality of the services by putting attention to small details. Always sourcing and prescreening top international talent with multiple languages and experiences from all major fields (marketing, finance, auditing, consulting, HR, engineering, computer science, etc). Excellent coordination of international movement. Due to Italian immigration

Through the Talent Development Program Telecom Italia engaged a positive relationship with AIESEC in order to develop an international project for long-term research which involved 6 young AIESEC interns from Japan, Korea and Brazil. Thanks to its efficient network all over the world, AIESEC was able to provide Telecom Italia with young talents with academic backgrounds in ICT and Business analysis as well as a global international culture. AIESEC selected short-lists of profiles based on our organization needs and offered to our chosen candidates a complete logistical support, including VISA applying and accommodation. We confirm our positive collaboration with AIESEC recommending this international young organization for those companies who want to start or develop an international experience.

regulations we still face many challenges when bringing non – European students and graduates. On – the - ground support network for logistical allocation and cultural integration in Italy, assisting with housing and transportation, legal matters such as permit of stay and fiscal code and local area orientation.

planet. Energy for life” and it encloses seven sub-themes that will be developed in different ways during the whole period of realization of the Expo and especially in the future. That’s why the organizing committee of the Expo 2015 decided also not to have a structural symbol of EXPO, but to make the EXPO the occasion to create in Milan a network for sustainable development interacting with different entities especially of the not-for-profit sector.

Expo Milano 2015 for a concrete collaboration. In occasion of the Global Leaders’ Summit 2009 held in Rome in February, the Mayor of Milan and Extraordinary Commissioner of the Expo Milano 2015, Ms. Letizia Moratti, signed an agreement with AIESEC in Italy in order to start a long term cooperation based on common activities and objectives. This agreement is based on three main objectives: . The organization and participation to the initiatives organized by the two entities about topics of common interest till 2015. . The organization of an AIESEC International Congress in 2015 during the period of realization of the Expo. . The realization of an International Volunteer Exchange Program managed by AIESEC in Italy appositively for the Expo Milano 2015.

The common vision, the close commitment to the most relevant global issues and the strong belief in the future generations made it possible for AIESEC in Italy to easily get in contact with 17

International Projects

Expansion in Ethiopia THE PROJECT

One of the most impactful initiatives of our organization at international level is its expansion in a new country. Today AIESEC is present in all the most developed countries but there are still many states and territories where AIESEC is not yet present, especially because of their strong economical, social and political challenges.

African countries where AIESEC is currently present

RESULTS

AIESEC Office in the University of Addis Ababa 30 active members More than 10 leadership experiences 3 Italian members and 2 internationals have been in Ethiopia to support the initiative 2 Ethiopian members have been in Italy to work in a project team 2 Ethiopian members have done an internship in Italy 3 partnership raised with Ethiopian companies 6 Ethiopian members participated to AIESEC international congresses (in Kenya, Brazil and Italy) 5 Italian local committees worked on projects around Ethiopia 1 National Event in Italy about Ethiopia and the development of Africa

Bringing AIESEC to a new territory means that a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Partner Countryâ&#x20AC;?, already present in the AIESEC network, takes the responsibility to drive the growth of the organization in this new location providing all the needed resources to enable the start up of AIESEC. Two years ago AIESEC in Italy decided to promote the expansion of AIESEC in Ethiopia, contributing to the cultural and professional development of young Ethiopian students that thanks to AIESEC now have the opportunity to live unique experiences and to improve their skills and competences.

MAIN PARTNER AIESEC EXPANSION IN ETHIOPIA Thanks to the international network of AIESEC every year KPMG Italy can select among hundreds of young graduates coming from all over the world who want to live an internship experience in our company bringing not just their knowledge but also their culture and sensibility to certain values that are very close to our owns.

“I’ve been for 45 days in Addis Ababa for the project of expansion of AIESEC in Ethiopia. My mission was not merely to transfer knowledge but to make the AIESEC machine run in Addis. I was part of a multinational team which I worked and lived with everyday. Since the beginning we focused in creating a team and in building up a plan to run activities. I delivered trainings about soft and hard skills and in particular I transferred to the Ethiopian guys the AIESEC culture and how AIESEC runs its activities providing opportunities to young people. Thanks to the work of my team we created the right conditions to allow 4 Ethiopian students to live a working experience in Italy. From a professional point of view I think this experience enabled me to really put in practice all that I learned in and outside AIESEC, leading me to understand how many things I knew, and how they could be useful in such a different context. I developed my

communication and management skills and being in contact with a completely diverse culture and working style I also sensibly developed my determination to achieve objectives. From a personal point of view I can say that this experience was the best ever in my life, because of the people I met and the quality of relationship we built. I never did so many things in such a pleasant and funny environment. I can definitely say that participating to this project gave me such a different and positive perspective of the world that I’m a new person now. Thanks AIESEC in Italy for giving me and the Ethiopian students this opportunity.”

In the last two years we supported AIESEC Italy to develop the “Ethiopia Project”. Thanks to this initiative KPMG is actively contributing to the development of a future generation of managers that with this project now have the opportunity to improve their skills and competences. We strongly encourage any organization to partner with AIESEC in order to become supporter of a really committed organization composed by talented young people who are change agents in our society and will be enlightened managers in the future in our firms.

51st Global Leaders' Summit Letter from the Congress

Committee President In the year of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, as a President of the Congress Committee I have had the honor to witness most incredible emotions shared by all the people I have worked with. Their dreams, their goals and all their energies have strongly connected through this one extraordinary Congress of AIESEC. The Global Leaders’ Summit 2009 has been guided by the spirit of those who believe in values such as Active Learning, Innovative Ideas and Diversity. And it is through Diversity and Innovation that we built the concept of the Congress.

from it, and an outstanding involvement of human and intellectual capital, mostly coming from pro-active students has been noted. They have made cultural understanding become the path to follow in their own lives. This is what made Global Leaders’ Summit special. As young entrepreneurs, we managed to achieve great success, in one of the world’s worst financial crisis. We managed to get our partners and institutions to believe in the project, even if the external environment was heavily influenced by the crisis. Another OPPORTUNITY for students to learn and to grow was processed by AIESEC. This is what makes our contribution into a step forward towards a better place, which we want to live in.

Working in a Team of 25 people coming from 10 different countries has shown to be about true Learning and Approaching Diversity in its deepest perspectives. For the first time after a long time, AIESEC in Italy had the chance to host the most important AIESEC Annual Congress, gathering together more than 200 young students coming from 107 different countries. Rome has been the magnificent capital of the AIESEC world during the span of the Congress. The result was an incredible number of events within the Congress, a great number of stakeholders having benefited

Finally after a lot of energy spent during the past three years, AIESEC in Italy and the Congress Committee did have an impact on Italian society, leaving a footprint that will be a fundamental memory for the future of the Association of AIESEC in Italy. In conclusion, I would like to express profound gratitude to AIESEC in Italy National

Committee, alumni, partner companies and organisations for the success obtained while we have committed ourselves to live this unforgettable life experience.

Yours sincerely,

Luigi Gallitto Congress Committee President Global Leaders’ Summit 2009

51st Global Leaders’ Summit Theme and Logo The communications design for the 51st Global Leaders’ Summit has been executed by outsourced professional designer, based in Milan.

AFF

The underlying idea of the Slogan and Logo draws its inspiration from the world of music and of the orchestra, the 107 participating Countries are displayed as the members of an orchestra. This metaphor is directed to bring up and stress the union of several different instruments (i.e. Countries) that come together and create and produce something special and unique. The orchestra has its own director. AIESEC, in the present case (isolated bluecoloured spot, institutional colour), plays such role, becoming landmark and reference point for each Country, a subject that coordinates and “offers” to the public and to the Countries involved the chance to live an experience. The graphic shape that represents AIESEC is a “gear”, something mechanical, it’s the element able to activate the mixture among different cultures in an innovative way (the gear is in fact the innovation’s representation). Moreover, the shape of the logo evokes that of an arena, specifically, for the case at hand, the sketched planshape of Rome’s Colosseum, so as to underline under an iconographical profile also the location itself.

Special recognition for the creative design to: ANNA FEDERICA FERRARA Communications Designer Viale Caterina da Forlì 20 20146 Milan +39 347 42 87 660 annafederica.ferrara@gmail.com www.annafedericaferrara.com

Anna’s thoughts… “In restless search for hints capable of inspiring my creativity. I constantly observe and try to comprehend everything that may be useful to me in order to create something communicatively appealing. Being particularly fond of traveling and feeling strongly attracted by different cultures, my mind is restlessly seeking new shapes of communication. Thanks to my study career I've developed and improved through the years a well-founded competence and deep skill in graphic and design.” 21

The Global Forum focused on Diversity as its main theme, and other related discussion topics involving companies, institutional representatives and journalists on one side, and the international delegates and top Italian students on the other.

Endorsement

Rome, 10 September 2009 First of all, I would like to express just how much your organisation has impressed me – both in terms of its history and its strength. You have come a long way and there is a lot to be proud of since 1949, when the number of exchange students was a mere 89. You have been widening the horizon of opportunities for students worldwide, and Italy is pleased to cooperate with you in promoting the principles that are the very basis of your organisation. Principles that are also our own. As pioneers of the social responsibility of business and of responsible leadership, which you instil – of self confidence and cooperation, striving for excellence, integrity and decision making – all this is sustainability and humanity. Yours is a positive initiative because it is founded on values. The promotion of peace by developing human potential, in particular through youth, places the person at the centre of your activity. This is something we also promote in our young generations in Italy.

Gianni Letta

The values that AIESEC develop individually and in teams, go to the specific value of your association – awareness and the building of awareness through experience. Through an inter-cultural dialogue you are building culture, which in turn creates a sense of belonging to a community. The AIESEC is an excellent tool to put into practice a dialogue between students and business, students and industry, students and institutions so that the voice of youth the world wide can be heard and can affect the future.

Giorgia Meloni

I wish you all the best in your future activity, in the firm and hopeful support for the valuedriven and committed future leaders your organisation is working to form.

Sincerely yours, Gianni Letta

Massimo D’Aiuto 26

Before us lies a difficult challenge, but maybe for this reason all the more exciting. We mus put our talents to use to create our own, unique and rewarding experiences, and at the same time contribute towards pulling our times out of a recession that risks to move from an economic to a social level. Our Ability to Innovate, exchange Ideas and products, by tying together diverse experiences and solutions will be a decisive factor in the creation of a future which is different from the one been predicted in these days. We can count on new technologies, we can benefit from the energy released from our age circumstance - Youth, but to turn things around towards a favorable destiny we definitely need to leverage on generational solidarity. That is why AIESEC’s role is important, because it offers itself as a tool for the achievement of international understanding and because it does so with intelligence and a spirit of friendship amongst students, that work to improve each other, with the final objective of making the world a better place. Naturally I hope that we will be able to make use of truly representative associations, such as yours. On my behalf there is not just availability, but sincere gratitude if you would wish to share this project”

Faithfully, Giorgia Meloni

Being CEO of a company that deals everyday with international development of Italian firms, I am aware of the economical and financial difficulties that the world is nowadays facing, which have sensitively increased during last year. At the present, when crisis makes affairs hard to be managed, student education must be considered a key issue: tomorrow entrepreneurial class will have the opportunity to develop international and cooperation projects in order to create new stable sources of Innovation. The Energy and the Innovation spirit that AIESEC’s network aim at creating in our society, make this organization be one of the best patterns of young entrepreneurship and represents an unlimited number of inputs for professional and personal development. In Italy AIESEC is constantly showing its initiatives based on primary values such as people excellence and work, innovation, ethics and professional integrity. We confirm our support and commitment towards AIESEC, which is represented by a qualified group of young students encouraging relevant initiatives and looking for the best resources and talents in more than 1100 universities in the world. SIMEST has already had the privilege over the past year to cooperate with AIESEC in granting their initiatives the adequate support and we plan to assist them for the forthcoming years.

PRESS AND MEDIA AT GLOBAL LEADERS’ SUMMIT

AIESEC Global Leaders’ Summit has represented an extraordinary challenge for the Organizing Committee, which has dedicated around 2 years to shaping it, preparing it, delivering it to the intended beneficiaries, and communicating it properly to all of its stakeholders. The extraordinary display of the many different events, all significant in their own perspective, and at the same time a constructive part of the umbrella Congress itself, compounded a communication material complex to handle, but at the same time inspiring for an innovative press and media approach. The press releasing strategy has been supported by 2 entities throughout, and other supporting channels, in order to maximize the effect of the pre-Congress communication. The Press Office of University of Roma Sapienza, and the partnering Press Office of Un-Guru have been working with the Communications team on the Congress Committee.

I pirati hanno le facce di quattro bravi ragazzi, metà primi della classe e metà genietti del computer. Ma secondo le major, che hanno intentato contro di loro la causa del secolo, con la loro creatura, il sito di download che non a caso avevano battezzato “Pirate Bay”, hanno dato forte impulso all’illegalità su internet. È iniziato ieri a Stoccolma il processo a Peter Sunde, Gottfrid Svartholm Warg, Fredrik Neij e Carl Lundstrom, inventori e gestori del sito capace di sfornare 15 milioni di peer e 1,2 milioni di file torrent, e considerato ormai un’icona del liberismo sulla Rete. Mentre i quattro imputati prendevano posto in aula, fuori del tribunale decine di ragazzi, con bende sugli occhi e capellacci da bucaniere, hanno manifestato la loro solidarietà. Ma la battaglia legale sarà dura. La batteria di avvocati delle major punta a dimostrare la violazione del copyright.

Irpef mancati si aggiungono infatti gli oltre 70 di imposta di registro. Un fenomeno consolidato e in crescita insomma: la Guardia di Finanza sta intensificando i controlli ma serve a poco. Le associazioni dei proprietari chiedono invece un’aliquota fissa con cui tassare i proventi delle locazioni.

BALANCE SHEET ASSETS

RESULTS 2008.2009

B) FIXED ASSETS I- Intangible fixed assets 1- start-up and capital costs 2- research, development and adv costs 3- licenses, trademarks and similar rights 4- other intangible fixeed assets Total II- Tangible fixed assets 1- office forniture and equipment 2- other tangible fixed assets

The associative year 2008/2009 has been successfully completed with a profit of 10.133,49 euro. This result is much more than satisfying knowing that it has been a challenging year considering both fix costs as well as unforeseeable ones. Analyzing the balance sheet the total revenues equal the amount of 109.797,40 euro. In comparison to last year the revenues are slightly lower, this is as well the case for the costs registered, which are inferior and add up to the amount of 99.664,00 euro. It is thanks to a very good cost cutting policy that made it possible to close the year with a considerable profit.

3- assets under construction and payments on account Total III- Financial fixed assets 1- amounts receivable a) from local committees b) from other committees 2- other financial assets Total TOTAL FIXED ASSETS C) ASSETS FORMING PART OF WORKING CAPITAL II- Receivables 1- receivables from associates

The revenues of this term are mainly generated by the new partnerships signed during the associative year as well as through the confirmation of some of the most important historical partnerships. By this we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean to undervalue the revenues obtained thanks to our Exchange program. All this, considering as well the financial aspect, allowed the closing of the associative year having liquidity available that would ensure a good start for the following term. One of the costs that caused the decrease of the financial outcome of the year has been the contingency fund related to the removal of the credit towards the Ad Hoc Committee of Global Leadersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Summit 2009, that has engaged in developing and organizing what has been for sure the biggest project of our term.

a) supporters

The most important costs are the ones related to the training of the associates, to be more precise the participation at congresses, the costs related to the accommodation and office of the National Committee and last, the ones related to the reimbursement of the full time members of the National Committee for their payments in advance. However an emphasis should be put on the fact that a good cost cutting policy has allowed a considerable decrease of the costs in comparison to the previous year.

Supervisory Board The Supervisory Board is an entity composed by representatives of external realities like companies, institutions, no-profit organizations, who are committed to support the development of AIESEC in Italy offering their personal contribution in terms of knowledge, expertise, network of contacts and social position.

advantage is that they can dispose of a relevant basin of potential young employees, already known and aligned to a new economic and social development vision. Then the existence of the Supervisory Board is welcomed and especially its strengthening in the future that will benefit the students that will be new business men and that will enter the field owning already an innovative vision.

“

With this short communication that I want to share with all of you, I’s like to evidence the importance for AIESEC of having a Supervisory Board, a group of “externals” that cooperates with the top management of AIESEC Italy as consultants and supervisors. The Supervisory Board members are mainly entrepreneurs, managers and business men, who, with their experience and their position can give a wider view to those who are managing AIESEC at national level and are students with a little working field experience. The relation between University and Companies has been for many years a dream of the system and I have to say that AIESEC, even if in small extent, with this collaboration put an important milestones in this area. The values that AIESEC pursues, first of all the “social responsibility”, accompanied by the not less important ones of the business ethic and the quality in the human resources management, can be underlined in the cooperation between AIESEC and the Supervisory Board, just because the members of the Board are strongly involved in their professional life in these themes where the economic and business world are still absents. Obviously for the members of the Board and for the organizations involved in this collaboration the

understanding of the Organization and its main principles. That’s why the members are generally partners, supporters and alumni of AIESEC, and they are chosen for their experience in different fields and sector AIESEC is interested in. Being part of the Supervisory Board of AIESEC Italy it’s not just a unique opportunity to contribute to the growth of a global students organization but it’s also a great occasion to connect to people coming from different sectors and with diverse backgrounds.

The members of the Supervisory Board are people who believe in the AIESEC values and in the impact of its activities. For this reason the Supervisory Board meets periodically (generally four time per year) the members of the National Committee of AIESEC Italy to discuss the most important topics about the strategic management and the administration of the Association in order to facilitate its growth and preserve it from any risk. To be a member of the Supervisory Board of AIESEC Italy is not necessary to be ex members of AIESEC but is needed a general 40

AIESEC in Italy

Member Committee 2009.2010 LEADING GROWTH, EVERY DAY

Today, AIESEC in Italy is undoubtedly growing across all facets and levels of our operations. We are witnessing a level of growth that generations in the past could only dream about, and our capacity could increase immensely if we start capitalizing on our greatest strength - membership. If AIESEC has to reach the kind of scale and significance it should, then each member of AIESEC in Italy needs to be engaged. We need to get rid of the illusion that if some parts of the organization are growing then the entire AIESEC in Italy is growing. The parts which are growing need to further capitalize on their growth and those that are yet to see growth need to envision for themselves what it means to explore and realize their potential. As Member Committee team we are incredibly excited to work on this quest.

AMBITION

AIESEC 2010

We are progressing rapidly towards the goals and there is no doubt that we will reach all of them. However, the elements of the vision are still ambitious and that is the challenge our entire organization is tackling. For us to get anywhere close to truly achieving this vision we need â&#x20AC;&#x153;all hands on deckâ&#x20AC;?. All the Member Committee 2009/2010 is committed to work with the network as we make our final sprint towards the 2010 vision and we look forward to the year ahead.

RESPONSIBILITY

As the generation of AIESECers who will lead the organization to 2010 we have an immense responsibility to not only achieve AIESEC 2010 but to take the organization to a point where it can dream bigger than it ever had, where it can look deep within and challenge its very core to emerge stronger, bigger and better than it has ever been.

MC 0910 team

Danilo, Gianluca, Yulia, Giulia, Michail, Anna, Alberto, Andrea, Rossella, Umberto and Angela I am confident about the abilities, knowledge, experience and commitment of the MC 2009-2010 team. We realize that what lies in front of us is no ordinary task and it will need the very best from us to redefine achievements for AIESEC in Italy especially at national level, in a difficult external context, but that make us stretching every day to be stronger and better. In the team we are a total of 11 people (6 men and 5 women) from 9 different cities and 4 different nationalities. Everyone has been in AIESEC for an average of about 3 years. Essentially, this team is a manifestation of the network, of the international platform that AIESEC is, working every day to help people fully explore their unique contribution to AIESEC in Italy, AIESEC Globally and to a better future Society.

AIESEC in Italy has thrived for 54 years because ambition has been a habit for special people coming from each corner of our country. Now we stand at the brink of finishing our 5 year vision and we are very close to achieve our organizational goals for 2009 (190 Exchanges, 147 Leadership Position, 500 Members), we just miss the last sprint with all our power to get closer to the AIESEC Vision. AIESEC is meant for every young person in this world and hence, we cannot hold ourselves back anymore. If we continue doing everything we always did then we will only get what we always got. Ambition in AIESEC is natural and imperative regardless of what your title is. 41
