From May 6th to 18th, 2018, the Healthcare Insurance in Europe program - The Portuguese Example - was an international training program with participants from all provinces of China, at the invitation from Fosun.
With a strong experiential component, the program took participants to learn about the reality of the insurance sector and its multiple stakeholders - which ranges from regulatory and supervisory authorities to private and public health care providers, the National Health Service and network providers. With the trusteeship and mentoring of Nova SBE Executive Education, the program was also covered in multiple cultural activities during 15 days, in a true interculturality experience, learning, and immersion in the European insurance sector and the Portuguese example.
"The training program co-designed by Nova SBE and Fosun shows how collaboration between the academic, public and private sectors, and between Europe and Asia, can create innovative partnerships for shared learning and cultural exchange. Nova SBE is committed to building a converging economy and humanity. We are very proud to have been part of this program and to have contributed to the deep historical connection between Portugal and China." Daniel Traça, Dean at Nova School of Business & Economics
The several participants highlighted the importance of the event - due to the uniqueness of the theme and its stakeholders - and the cooperation of both countries involved in conducting international training on an increasingly relevant and pressing theme. In his words:
“We are very grateful for the thoughtful preparations made by Nova SBE through this training. We have seen highly qualified professors, unforgettable lectures, comprehensive course plans, a careful program and, of course, delicious food. Everyone made us feel at home. Thanks to this program, we have acquired a systematic knowledge of European and Portuguese health systems, as well as the health insurance sector evolution. Also, thanks to this program, the Luso-Chinese social and academic exchange has substantially improved. In a word, this program was a great success. Congratulations on the friendship between China and Portugal!” Xucheng YUAN, Head of Delegation
“This program is most likely the most comprehensive and exhaustive exchange in the health insurance sector in the relationship between China and Portugal history. Behind the success is a great effort from all parties involved, especially from Nova SBE. With this collaboration, we see Nova SBE's exceptional ability and expertise. We look forward to future cooperation.” Lan Kang, Director of the Executive Committee of Fosun, President of the Fosun Group
“We know that cultural, linguistic, social and physical barriers are forces that push us even further from a distance, but Portugal, China, Fidelidade and Fosun - with the knowledge and help of Nova SBE - are living proof that with will, dedication, commitment, work, strategic alignment, and an open mind, it is possible to build a better, more inclusive and prosperous world.” Dr. Rogério Campos Henriques, VP of the Directors Board of Fidelidade Seguros
