“I attended EURIE, for the first time, as a representative of a European higher education institution. I visited and met many HEIs from very different countries (mainly from Asia and Turkey) and made contacts with a view to possible future academic partnerships, as well as attended several workshops and panels organized in parallel with the exhibition. I found EURIE very interesting, as the content of the conference provided me with a lot of information and new elements, which will be useful when I return to my daily work. I would recommend EURIE to any education professional who wants to broaden their horizons in their field and in this region of the world.”
