News : International Onboarding Program (IOP)

GWT organizes a large introductory meeting at the World Trade Center in Dresden.

On Octo­ber 16, Mr. Bibhu Mishra, Head of the Saxon Sci­ence Liai­son Office (SSLO) in Chen­nai, was a guest at the World Trade Center.

The mee­ting offe­red the oppor­tu­nity to get to know the IOP team, to exch­ange ideas with Indian working stu­dents and for inten­sive net­wor­king. At the same time, the focus was on GWT’s role as coor­di­na­tor of the IOP – and the assump­tion of respon­si­bi­lity for the SSLO office in Chennai
as a sign of close, inter­na­tio­nal cooperation. 

The IOP sup­ports young inter­na­tio­nal talent in gai­ning a foot­hold in Dres­den and Sax­ony. It pre­pa­res them for their stu­dies, ever­y­day life and career, accom­pa­nies their arri­val in the region and crea­tes long-term pro­s­pects through men­to­ring, com­mu­nity buil­ding and early links to companies. 

A bene­fit for stu­dents, for Dres­den and for the Saxon economy.
