Entrepreneurship

in Berlin

Powered by Travelling U.

A tailored immersion into Europe’s most vibrant cultural ecosystem. Designed for Universities, Art Academies, and Public Institutions.

We want your students to do more than just observe art—we want them to leave Berlin with the drive to build their own cultural initiatives. This program bridges the gap between the classroom and the real world, showing students how independent artists, collectives, and creative startups actually survive and thrive.

The Core Goal

To spark the entrepreneurial mindset in your students, giving them the inspiration and practical tools to launch their own creative projects.

How do we design the Expedition?

The Berlin programme offers workshops and masterclasses that inspire and empower cultural talent. Led by Berlin-based experts, these experiences encourage students to explore fresh ideas, collaborate in teams, and think beyond traditional boundaries.

    "Working with Travelling U has been an incredible experience. As a project mentor and team coach for the International Business Programmeme at Shanghai Xing College, we collaborated with Travelling U for this Learning Journey in Spain. We have been long-term collaborators, working together to help students develop key skills such as cross-cultural communication, project organisation, and execution, all within an authentic international collaborative environment. Through our multicultural exchange programmes, we’ve been able to enrich the students' learning experience, providing them with the tools they need to succeed in the global business world."

    Without the Travelling U teams in Berlin and Shanghai, our students’ academic success, personal development, and growth in teamwork would simply not be possible. This is a team defined by genuine care, talent, commitment, humanity, and enthusiasm qualities they bring to every action and every learning experience they create. What makes them truly special is that they continue to grow and enrich themselves year after year.With them, everything feels possible — and importantly, easier.
