Basically my degree of understanding of the development and potential of the entrepreneurial ecosystem has been greatly upgraded to a bigger overall picture."
"To sum up, as a Fulbright-RAF visiting scholar I have been given the possibility to learn and develop myself not only in the entrepreneurial field, but also in my specialization field – computer engineering."
"The idea of experiencing one of the best education systems in the world (if not the best) could be quite overwhelming. But soon I realized that this is going to be a unique opportunity to learn as much as possible, to work like never before in my academic life. And I did just that."
"My experience at Kent State University as a Fulbright Teaching Excellence and Achievement Program (TEA) grantee was the greatest experience in my entire career as a teacher of English.

"My Fulbright scholarship represented a unique experience in life, namely 5 months of exploring the American culture while networking and doing research focused on environmental impact assessment in a prestigious university, as is the case of Ohio State University."
"I know that being an educator has never been easy, all the more now, during the peculiar times we all live. Yet, I have always believed in the power of the word connection, and by it, I mean cascading knowledge, learning from each other, sharing, and coming up with the best solutions. I firmly believe that the future of this world is in the hands of educators, no matter where they live and work."
"Looking back, I think I can say without any doubt that this scholarship has offered me one of the most incredibly beautiful and interesting academic and cultural experiences."
"The immersion in the everyday life of a US higher education institution as a Fulbright scholar is an experience that deserves any effort. Fulbright Fellows are considered highly professional visitors and supported to finalize their academic project with excellent results."
"My Fulbright experience was about connection, research resources, people, diversity, and self-empowerment. One of the best ways to fill six months, and I am really grateful for it!"
