Dear IB Colleagues:

If you would like to add a real international business consulting project to your IB or Intl. Marketing course, you still have 10 days add X-Culture to your course this semester.

Professors from 158 universities in 40 countries have already signed up their students for X-Culture for this semester, and we can still accept a few more applications.

About X-Culture:

• X-Culture is a partnership of business professors. We put our students in global virtual teams (GVTs). About 6 per team, each in a different country. The students work on real-life international business challenges presented by real companies. The students basically serve as IB consultants, while also learning how to work with people from other cultures.
• No simulations. No games. Real international virtual teams. Real clients. No travel needed. All collaboration is virtual.
• About 5,000 MBA and undergraduate students from 40+ countries on 6 continents participate in X-Culture every semester (50,000+ have participated in X-Culture so far).
• The best students are then invited to X-Culture Global Symposium where they meet their team members and top managers from the client company.
• X-Culture recently won the Wharton’s Re-Imagine Education Award in the Nurturing Employability category.
