International Learning Experience in Antwerp

MLI students recently travelled to Antwerp, Belgium to participate in the Erasmus Blended Intensive Programme (BIP), an international initiative aimed at strengthening digital competencies and entrepreneurial thinking.

Throughout the programme, students collaborated with peers from across Europe, explored emerging trends in e‑commerce, and applied practical strategies to design and refine high‑impact webshops.

Alongside the hands‑on learning and cross‑cultural teamwork, students shared overwhelmingly positive impressions of their experience — highlighting the value of international exposure, innovative learning environments, and real‑world digital skills development.

Student Reflections

This programme strengthened my digital skills and broadened my perspective on online business. I appreciated the balance between theory and hands‑on activities, which made the learning process engaging and relevant. The feedback we received on our final project was incredibly motivating and encouraged me to continue developing my skills in e‑commerce.

The Erasmus BIP in Antwerp was an eye‑opening experience that helped me deepen my understanding of e‑commerce and digital strategy. Working closely with international students challenged me to think differently and adapt quickly. The practical tasks, especially building our webshop concept, gave me real confidence in applying what we learned.

Participating in the BIP programme allowed me to grow both academically and personally. I enjoyed collaborating with a multicultural team and discovering new approaches to problem‑solving. The lecturers were supportive, the sessions were interactive, and exploring Antwerp together made the whole experience even more memorable.
