Wittenborg Strengthens Global Education Connections at ICEF Berlin 2024

Regional Admissions Managers Amin Nadervandi and Mykhailo Huba recently attended the highly anticipated ICEF Berlin 2024, held from 3 to 5 November at the InterContinental Hotel in Berlin, Germany. The event, now in its 29th edition, was regarded as the pinnacle of the global education sector’s networking calendar, bringing together over 2,500 international education professionals from 116 countries.

For Wittenborg, the event offered a great opportunity to connect with industry peers, engage in high-level discussions and explore new partnerships that would drive the future of international student recruitment.

Reflecting on the event, Nadervandi shared, “ICEF Berlin 2024 was an incredibly enriching experience. It wasn’t just about meeting people; it was about engaging in meaningful discussions and building new partnerships. The level of interaction was outstanding, and I’m looking forward to applying the insights we gained to advance Wittenborg’s international presence.”

The conference provided a comprehensive platform for participants to engage in pre-scheduled meetings, attend seminars and join panel discussions, all designed to keep attendees informed of key trends and innovations shaping the global education landscape.

Nadervandi also noted the strong focus on technology and innovation at the event, which was a key area of interest for Wittenborg. “One of the highlights for me was the opportunity to network with such a diverse group of people from across the education sector. We were able to have some fantastic discussions, particularly around how technology and AI (Artifical Intelligence) are transforming the way we think about student recruitment and the overall student experience,” he explained.

In addition to the in-person ICEF Berlin event, Wittenborg’s team also participated in ICEF Digital, which took place on 2 November. Nadervandi emphasised the importance of these digital sessions: “The ICEF team did an excellent job curating these sessions, and it was a great opportunity for us to engage in cutting-edge discussions that will definitely influence our strategies going forward.”

The vibrant atmosphere of Berlin added an extra layer of excitement to the event. “I really enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere of the city,” Nadervandi added. “It made the networking feel even more dynamic and exciting. It wasn’t just about the professional exchanges, but also about the connections you make in such an inspiring setting.”
