We have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with International Black Sea University (IBSU) to support innovation and entrepreneurship within its student and alumni community.

The collaboration includes participation in conferences, specialist workshops, and joint research projects. Our aim is to connect academic learning with practical experience and the relationships needed to navigate global markets.

IBSU announced the partnership on May 14, 2026. The agreement provides a framework for developing these opportunities together.

Opportunities for students and alumni

The agreement identifies conferences, specialist workshops and joint research as routes to connect the IBSU community with international innovation networks. Its emphasis is on creating practical exposure alongside academic learning.
