Ilya Koveshnikov and Nazar Levadnyi, second-year students in the International Business Management program at Varna University of Management, recently participated in an exciting Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) titled Green and Digital: Human Footprints, Entrepreneurial Bootcamp, taking place in November 2024 The activity was supported within a mobility project in the framework of the Erasmus+ programme and was hosted by PAR University of Applied Sciences in Rijeka, Croatia.
The programme brought together students from across Europe to explore how green and digital transformations are shaping the future of business and entrepreneurship. Through workshops, hands-on projects, and cross-cultural collaboration, participants examined the global impact of sustainability and innovation in the modern economy.
Reflecting on a similar BIP experience, Ilya shared:
“Joining the BIP about the New Economy and Green Deal at West University of Timisoara, Romania helped me understand how accounting can support a more sustainable world. I also enjoyed the cultural exchange with students from different countries — we shared ideas, learned from each other, and saw how different views can help solve global problems together.”
At VUM, we are proud to support our students in taking part in transformative international learning experiences that foster critical thinking, global citizenship, and innovative problem-solving.
Stay tuned for more stories from our students shaping the future around the world!
