I’ve done X-Culture twice now as well as attended 2017 Miami Symposium, after the first one I thought I was going to be ready for the next one. Nope. Each time I’ve learned something new about myself and I love it. My research skills get slightly better every time. It truly is an amazing experience, and makes my resume look great! Thank you, X-Culture! I will one day return the favor!

A lot of things came true for me participating in X-culture; I had never been on a plane, i had never been to the USA ever, gone to the beach in Florida, meeting and interacting with Seminole Gaming executives, Miami International Airport and Port Executive tour, interacting with other X-Culture members and our team emerging x-Culture Winners and not forgetting our visit to Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino-Hollywood Florida.

So many things were a dream come true with X-Culture. We attract good things because we go in search for them, and even when the door has been shut enough time, that drive and faith will always attract good favor.

Thank you X-Culture, i loved every minute of my experience.

My name is Maria Liami and I am a Master student in the program of International Business and Management in the University of Groningen, in the Netherlands.

Now that the X-Culture project is over, I would like to thank you and express to you my deep and honest appreciation for the consolidated feedback, the X-Culture participation certificate and the reference letter as well. I frankly believe that they will prove to be very helpful into increasing my chances for future success in my career.

The X-Culture project for me was one of the best practical experience that as a Master student I could ask for. I really learned a lot of things about cooperating and working in an international team that I am keen on implementing in my future career.

I truly enjoyed reading the reports that you sent to me. I found interesting and valuable ideas.

It was really interesting to participate as a “returnee” in the X-Culture project. My team was surprised to find out that I had completed my studies [and participated in X-Culture for the second time]. I can say I have gotten better understanding of the communication among different cultures, approach to common work, and found very friendly colleagues.

The X-Culture project is great. I believe that it really provides us with real life difficulties that we will face upon graduating. Hopefully more classes can find a way of incorporating an international project in to there curriculum.

X-citing + X-cruciating + X-hilaration + X-haustion = X-Culture

Liviu, Romania

I had a phone job interview with a company and the X-Culture became the central theme of our conversation… I am flying to their corporate office for the final interview and will be doing a presentation of the X-Culture project since it is easy to compare this project to the working world

Jeremy, USA

I really feel I learned a lot. I now have a clearer idea about virtual collaboration with people from other countries. I am now closer to my dream of getting a job in a global company thank to this experience

Shu, China

I am grateful for the opportunity to establish contact with students over the world, it was an amazing experience and I really learn a lot about how make projects, business and share ideas with people from other cultures.

This was a great opportunity for me from both academic and human perspectives. I hope you are going to continue with this kind of projects.

Indeed it a was a challenge to work with students from different countries and yes it was a great opportunity to face and deal with different cultures and different style of working on projects.

Visar, India

It would be useful to do such experiments again.

Andrea, Romania

It is surely a great experience for me to work with people from different countries, as I’m currently studying International Entrepreneurship course.

Thank you very much for generating this collaboration project. I am sure it will be helpful to many of the students’ future.

Stephanie, Indonesia

Indeed, it was an international experience that I did not have before, due to the fact that I worked on international level only in non-formal education. Therefore, I tried to learn as much as possible out of this and to take the task to a successful result.

Daniela, Romania

It was an eye opener and I enjoyed the experience!

Ninette, Spain

Great educational experience. You think you know how to work with people from other countries because there are so many of them around you here in the US – you don’t know anything until you go through X-Culture

Scott, USA

Hi Professor,

I hope that you are enjoying your summer. I am currently interning for VF Europe in Bornem, Belgium (loving every minute of it). It’s such a fun experience to be fully immersed in an international business environment.

In short, I wanted to thank you for a fun and intriguing spring semester. After working in Belgium for a month, I am beginning to see the strong correlation of the X-Culture project, and working internationally. I feel that your project has provided a unique framework for entering a multinational corporate environment. I am working in the logistics/distribution department tasked with lowering freight cost for VF brands located throughout Eastern Europe. Often times, when staging a report for management, data needed must be compiled from multiple departments spanning throughout different countries in Europe. Here, effective communication along with decisive action are truly the keys to success (much like our project)!

Again just wanted to give a quick “thank you” for the valuable experience and wish you the best of luck in your teaching endeavors & future

Kind regards, Matthew, USA
