"Everything I had imagined about academic life in the U.S. proved to be true. […] The University of Texas at Austin was great, as I expected, but the real discovery there was the city and its delightfully weird people."

"After spending almost 10 months in Davis, California on a Fulbright scholarship I can confidently say that it was one of the most enriching experiences, both on an academic level and, maybe more important, on a personal level."

"The high risk, and in many cases highly theoretical, type of research conducted in the US finds easier ways to be applied in the real economy (intellectual property transfers, start-ups, etc.), which also explains why most of the major technology companies are US-based."

"Being able to learn from such experienced people about how they started their entrepreneurial initiatives, how they’ve grown, what worked for them and what didn’t was a huge opportunity for me and my colleagues."

"I think living and working in the USA has a wonderful way of changing the way you feel about freedom and opportunity, infusing you with self-confidence and the desire to change the world around you."

"When we talk about entrepreneurship, we talk about knowledge, education, economy, innovation, R&D and people coming together, discussing and collaborating. The one thing I think is different and exciting in the United States and their entrepreneurial system is how these are all connected."

Dragoș Vintilă

"This Fulbright experience is hard to forget, especially when you are a first-time visitor to the US like myself. Vanderbilt keeps on bringing back memories of wonderful people and places and makes me think that a short-lived American dream like this is a real keepsake which tells me that I will come back soon."

Dragoș Ivana

Fulbright Senior Researcher 2016-2017
