About Robin Oconnor

Born in France, raised in the UK, fascinated by modern China, and working across the globe - a true world citizen and admirer of human diversity and ingenuity. I am passionate about promoting cultural exchange and international travel. Director of Programme Design As Director of Programme Design, I am dedicated to designing awesome Global Immersions with the rest of the team at Legacy Ventures. Our role, in partnership with many of the world's leading business schools, is to design learning programmes exposing MBA students to business, leadership and management in an international context. Typical programmes involve an agenda of business visits, cultural activities and meetings with business leaders in a particular destination. It has been inspiring to connect with 100s of leaders at some of the world's most influential, innovative and exciting companies, and a privilege to help ambitious and intellectual MBA students on their journey. ⏮ Background A passion for international business was forged in 2017, when I worked in Xiamen, China, representing Stonescreen Ltd. I developed a QA system that could be managed remotely from the UK, which was critical to Stonescreen navigating the test of a global pandemic, with of orders worth 7.5 million USD passing through the system. China has remained close to my heart and is my second home.
