Last summer, I was lucky enough to land an amazing internship at the company BasicNet, which is headquartered in Turin and publicly quoted in Italy.

This unique gallery, located in the heart of Rome near the Tiber River, exhibits the work of emerging Italian artists. A boring 鈥渨hite walls鈥� environment? This gallery is filled with the spirit of art! The pieces on exhibit are created by artists using different techniques and media; shows include sculpture, photography, and many styles of painting. Another singularity is that the gallery cooperates with an antique store, 鈥淎ntiquariato Valligiano鈥� which exhibits rare and antique furniture mixed in with the works of art. This adds an atmosphere of comfort and increases a visitor鈥檚 immersion in the world of Art.

Since MediaLab is a small social media company, it was a big advantage for me because I got to work directly with my boss on a day-to-day basis. It also allowed me the freedom to voice my opinions, present my ideas, and actually get to develop them. I was given a lot of responsibilities, something that many interns don鈥檛 get the chance to have in bigger businesses. This allowed me to discover a lot about myself, about how I work, and how I express myself in the business world.

I had wanted to intern for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization but as a Libyan, I was not eligible because Libya is not one of the member countries. EGIC, however, turned out to be a perfect fit. The Centre began as a legal association in Rome, Italy, and draws on the expertise of scholars, policy makers, economists and members of European and Gulf civil societies to enhance inter-regional relations. As an International Relations student with a focus on Middle Eastern affairs, I was very excited about the opportunity and it was exactly what I wanted.
