Double the impact: Two parallel Masters delegations discover Paris and Barcelona!
Earlier this month, the HKU-TLV Innovation Hub successfully led two simultaneous international field trips for Masters’ students —one in Paris and the other in Barcelona.
Across both cities, students took part in a rich and immersive academic experience that combined company visits, interactive workshops, and cultural exploration. They engaged with local startups and industry leaders, attended expert-led lectures on geopolitics, EU monetary & economic policy, and explored the local business ecosystems from multiple angles.
A major highlight was the Product Management workshop, which focused on one of today’s most in-demand skill sets. Following the workshop, students participated in an exciting Sprint Day, where they applied their earned skills to solve real-world business challenges and deliver impactful, hands-on solutions for French company Le Cordon Bleu & Spanish startup Emotional Hub.
Outside the classroom, students rolled up their sleeves in a fun, hands-on cooking workshop, diving into the rich local flavors and culinary traditions. They also soaked up the vibe of each city’s coolest spots—from Gaudí’s stunning creations in Barcelona to the charming streets and iconic landmarks of Paris such as the Eiffel Tower and Palace Garnier opera house.
These international field trips offered students a unique chance to broaden their global perspectives, sharpen practical business skills, and connect with both peers and professionals across borders.
We’re proud to be building these cross-cultural bridges—and are already looking forward to what’s next for these bright HKU masters students!
