While the pandemic is firmly in the rearview mirror, its impact on the global economy and the overall business landscape remains a consideration to this day. For Mohsen Sabet (Class of Global EMBA 2021, COO of VT Industrial Technology), the lessons he and his team learned during the past three years have shaped the course of their current business strategy and client relationships. It also gave them the push to take VT global.

We sat down with Mohsen to ask him about his leadership of VT's initial expansion out from its sizeable base in Wuxi, Jiangsu province. It's a bright new chapter for the company and for Mohsen personally.  His time with CEIBS Global EMBA may be coming to an end, but the application of its lessons couldn't be more relevant as VT takes this ambitious new step with a view to becoming a leading global player in the automotive tooling industry.
