We are based in Offida, a medieval village in the Marche region of Italy. Here, we create residential learning programmes for international university students. First, we connect students with local companies, entrepreneurs and communities. Then, we organise accommodation, meals, company visits and cultural activities. In addition, we manage all on-site services. As a result, our university partners can offer their students an authentic learning experience in Italy. Learn more here.

We support universities and organisations in developing European-funded projects from start to finish. First, we develop the project idea and build the partnership. Next, we write and submit the grant application. Then, we manage the project, its budget and its reporting. Finally, we share the results with international audiences. Since our foundation, we have joined 14 Erasmus+ and Horizon Europe projects as coordinator or partner. As a result, we have built strong and lasting international partnerships. Learn morehere.

We conduct applied research to study innovation in education, internationalisation and regional development. To do this, we use both quantitative and qualitative research methods. In particular, we use case studies to learn from our project experiences. Then, we turn these experiences into research-based knowledge. Finally, we share our results through scientific journals, conferences and professional publications. As a result, our research supports new ideas and better practices in education. Learn more here.
