Raisa Bruner 🇺🇸 Class of Insead 23J

Raisa is an already accomplished journalist who started her career at the Yale Daily News (writing about SWUGs - go read about it if you are not familiar with frat culture).

Prior to Insead, she worked as a journalist for Time Magazine in NYC for 6 years. She hustled her way into music reporting, which led her to incredible interactions with celebrities (she confirms: they are as insecure as us).

Join us for a dive into the world of a modern reporter and pick up some tips on how to write a great story along the way.

Francesco Bracotti 🇮🇹 Class of Insead 23J

Francesco started off his career on the race tracks going up to F3 (which helped him humiliate us mere Inseaders at Go Karting) 🏁 🏎️

He experienced a tough change in his life at 18 which led him to end the F1 dreams to pursue a career in healthcare, which he realised he was much more passionate about. He provides us with insights into the inner workings of Big Pharma, and makes the case for us to trust these companies to drive innovation within the industry.

Francesco had a lot of crazy experiences in his career: discovering molecules to administer drugs to our lungs (we geek out on mucus quite extensively together 😅), taking on the COVID portfolio during the crisis and being selected as Forbes under 30 (according to him he is just a consistently “lucky” guy).

Johan is a passionate problem solver who has a strong desire to have a positive impact in this World. We discuss his studies of War, what he would do in an end of the World scenario 🌎 💥, how he became the confident public speaker he is today 🗣️, why he decided to become a consultant (think MANY ☕ 💬) and what his experience on the job was (how do you become optimised? Think MECE? What is your job? What to expect if you start dating a consultant? How to manage your time under pressure?).

Raman Garimella 🇮🇳 Class of Insead 23J

Raman is passionate about sports whether it’s sweating on a field or working on aerodynamic gear. It started with cricket, the gentleman’s sport 🏏. He then focused on cycling where he worked his way up from zero to nationals 🚴‍♂️. He is a gritty human who works hard on achieving his goals. His newfound passion is cooking which he has done for 100+ Insead students so far (perhaps you will be lucky enough to get invited to a biryani at his home).
