We are pleased to announce that we have entered into cooperation with the CENTER FOR APPLIED BUSINESS &
MANAGEMENT RESEARCH, a private group of private institutions for higher education and research.

The scope of our cooperation will be primarily in Research collaboration with Dr. Phillip Cartwright and Dr.Natalija Riabko, as well as the creation of Short Programs and/or specific certifications.

We at TFI are proud to cultivate long term, long lasting relationships,
and this MOU is a case in point : our President has known Dr. Philip Cartwright since 2011, when they met and both taught at Paris School of Business .

They recently caught up at an event organised on May 6 in Paris, which was the starting point of several sessions of consultations and discussions over Summer on possible avenues of cooperation .

They even took the time to do a podcast together on June 22 , entitled “Beyond Words : how Music & Dance communicate what words can not”
