Departments
Scientific Department
Get Involved’s Scientific Department is responsible for the preparation, the research and the writing of the Intelligence initiatives, namely the Synopsis of the Economic Bulletin and the ESG Insights.
The workload of the Scientific Department is comparably heavier than the other departments, but it can be adjusted as it is affected by the number of initiatives an associate participates. More precisely, the average duration between the publication of an initiative can be from four to six weeks.
Marketing Department
Get Involved’s Marketing Department is divided into two teams. The first team is Content Creation & Social Media Management which is responsible for the promotion of our initiatives and improving our branding. More specifically, it develops the graphic designs and the explanatory passages used both on social media and on Get Involved’s website, it develops our communication channels with our stakeholders and aims to constantly improve our organization image.
The second team is Corporate Communications which is responsible for the communication and the creation of strategic synergies of Get Involved with its various stakeholders. Get Involved has developed synergies with institutional organizations, corporations and university/youth organizations. The team is also responsible for retaining the relationships with our partners, but also to find new potential partners that will contribute to the creation of added value to Get Involved’s initiatives.
