“I had an amazing experience with Ingenious Faces! It gave me a unique insight into the start up ecosystem in Delhi which allowed me to make useful cross-country comparisons. India is an amazing place to experience in terms of the culture and in terms of the drive and work ethic of the people there. Definitely an experience I will not forget with learnings that have broadened and refined my knowledge of the startup ecosystem both in India and in South Africa.”Avik Sen

“The program in Cape Town was a perfect amalgamation of learning and fun. Attending the power packed sessions on leadership and innovation management in UCT and other entrepreneurial hubs like zoona, Barclay's rise supplemented our knowledge with the practicalities of an emerging market like SA. Cape Town's unique culture, food and natural beauty brought out the explorer in me, adding to it the friendship and oneness I fostered with the hosts made my stay all the more fulfilling and a treat that would remain with me for a very long time.”

Founder Air Student South Africa
“I still remember seeing the Ingenious Faces ad and thinking to myself, "This has to be the perfect opportunity to grow my entrepreneurial arsenal." After the experience, I realised it was way more than just that. The IF experience isn't just an entrepreneurial experience but also one of personal growth and cultural immersion. It's funny how being part of this programme doesn't get you to think out of the box but rather removes the box fully. Joining IF makes you realise that there's a larger goal than just taking over your country but you should take over the world.”

"Learning outside the classroom, especially abroad is extremely valuable. My experience with IF helped me think out of the box by exposing me to conditions and obstacles different from what I’m used to and broadened my perspectives by helping me see novel solutions to a diverse set of problems."
Rik Vanderhaeghe
Lecturer Katholieke Hogeschool Kempen Belgium
“At most institutions, the knowledge & problems that students learn to encounter tend to be largely theoretical and quite familiar to their living environment. The IF program present them with projects and experiences completely different to what they are used to and helps them see the world with a fresh perspective.”
