77% of banks have already launched GenAI applications. 562 million people worldwide hold digital assets. More than 130 countries are exploring a central bank digital currency.

The financial sector isn't waiting.

The question is whether you'll be the one interpreting these shifts – or the one trying to catch up with them.

The NOVA IMS Executive Master's in Fintech, Digital and Decentralized Finance was built for professionals who need more than intuition to navigate what's coming next. Blockchain, smart contracts, crypto assets, DeFi, AI, regulation – not as isolated topics, but as a single framework for data-driven financial leadership.

Applied learning runs through the programme: real projects with partner organisations, where innovation meets the actual challenges the financial market faces every day.

84% of executives consider innovation critical to growth. Yet less than 5% of European investments generate truly disruptive outcomes.

The gap isn't ambition. It's method.

The NOVA IMS Executive Master's in Data-Driven Innovation and Entrepreneurship was built for managers, entrepreneurs, and innovation leaders who need more than a good idea to create real impact – they need the tools to identify opportunities, validate solutions, and scale them with confidence.

From data and AI to design thinking, business model development, Lean Startup and growth strategy – not as isolated topics, but as a single framework for evidence-based innovation.

Applied learning runs through the programme: real projects with partner organisations, and direct access to the NOVA Innovation & Analytics Lab, where strategy meets the actual challenges businesses face every day.

→ Applications open.

Two days. Three degrees. One decision that could change everything.

This weekend, future students and their families came to NOVA IMS to explore what it means to build a career in a world driven by data. Data Science, Information Management, and Information Systems – three paths into one of the most in-demand fields of our time.

A school with one of the highest graduate employability rates in Portugal. Students recruited across every sector – from finance and health to tech, consulting, and public policy. Programs recognised internationally, with a QS 5-star rating across multiple dimensions.

But beyond the rankings: a community, a way of thinking, and a belief that data – used well – can change how we understand the world.

Thank you to every student and family who spent these two days with us.

🌍 The world needs Data Visionaries. Be one.

What does it mean to be a Data Visionary?

To understand that data is no longer something organisations look at after the fact.

It is where decisions begin, risks emerge, opportunities appear and the next move is made.

On June 25, the Data With Purpose Summit 2026, by NOVA IMS, brings together the people thinking, building and deciding with data – across business, science, policy and society.

More details coming soon.
