Dear IB Colleagues:
X-Culture is accepting applications for 2021.
If you would like to add a real international business consulting project to your International Business/Management/Marketing courses, the X-Culture Project might be a good choice.
Over 75,000 students from 600 universities in 110 countries have taken part in X-Culture over the years, and more join the project every semester (full list here).
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. Real international virtual teams. Real clients. No travel needed. All collaboration is virtual.
- About 6,000 MBA and undergraduate students from 70+ countries on 6 continents participate in X-Culture every semester.
- 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 won the Wharton’s Re-Imagine Education Award in the Nurturing Employability category.
- Research is a big part of X-Culture. So if you need to publish, we can help, too.

- Undergraduate
- Master’s
- EMBA
