Experience
International Programmes
Tailor-made programmes for universities, delegations, organisations and entrepreneur groups. Training, expert sessions, company visits, networking, business matching and cultural experience — designed as one journey rather than a schedule of parts.
Formats
Six kinds of programme
Each of these is a starting point for a conversation, not a fixed package. The combination of training, visits, matchmaking and cultural experience shifts with the group.
Entrepreneurial Study Visits
A cohort of founders spends a week seeing how Dutch entrepreneurship works from the inside — incubators, funders, founders who have done it.
Innovation Programmes
For organisations that want to understand how Dutch innovation ecosystems produce what they produce, and what is transferable.
Business Delegations
Sector-focused delegations with a commercial objective: partners, buyers, suppliers, or a market decision at the end of it.
University Programmes
Semester modules, summer schools and study tours for international student and faculty groups, built with academic outcomes in mind.
Professional Exchange
Peer-to-peer exchange between international professionals and their Dutch counterparts in the same field.
Custom Learning Journeys
You tell us the group, the ambition and the time available. We design the rest from scratch.
What a programme is made of
- Training
- Expert Sessions
- Company Visits
- Networking
- Business Matching
- Cultural Experience
Six components, mixed to purpose. A one-week founder visit weights company visits and matchmaking heavily. A university module weights training and expert sessions. Both include the cultural experience, because it is where the group becomes a group.

Tailored programmes
Or we build one from scratch
Most institutional work starts here. A university wants a two-week summer module. A municipality is hosting an incoming trade delegation. An accelerator wants its international cohort to understand the Dutch funding landscape properly.
We design the whole thing — curriculum, experts, company hosts, logistics, matchmaking and the cultural programme that makes a group cohere.
