INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION

PARTNER SEARCH & CAMPUS DEVELOPMENT

South-East Asia offers an unique combination of education needs, cultural diversity and investments. Singapore is the perfect example of a promising education hub that is able to attract an ever increasing number of international students.
The challenge for European education providers is to accept the fact that an economically emerging Asia implies changes in fluxes of international education (students, investments, rankings, etc). The “castle syndrome” that believes a Parisian or Italian specialized education will never be matched and reproduced elsewhere is a “self-blinding” attitude. As a symbolic example, the Fashion Industry mainly located in Paris and Milan will shift to Asia following a monetary accumulation in the region. The question is not “if” but “when” this will have a serious impact and “when” new emerging fashion hubs will compete.

The French wine domination of the World markets and recent stiff competition of many other origins should be a good lesson: adaptation to a changing and international environment requires diversity whatever is the quality of the original product or service.

We apply to the Education industry, our several services offered to the commercial sector in their partner searches. A local correspondent who is able to pre-select the best matching partners and interact with local authorities is necessary for :

- academic exchanges
- student exchanges
- collaboration agreements
- campus developments

With offices in Singapore and Jakarta and with a regular presence in Malaysia, we welcome your inquiries via direct email, education workshops (e.g. ICEF Berlin) and an annual European tour.

Partner search contract: variable duration
Transportation expenses: charged at real cost
Charged in EUROS or SGD
Options: offer based upon your requirements with fixed and success fees
