The IH Dublin team has returned from an inspiring and productive week at ICEF Berlin 2025. As one of the most important global events in international education, ICEF brings together schools, partners, educators, and industry leaders from around the world to shape the future of global mobility. This year was no exception, and IH Dublin was proud to be part of it.

Connecting With Partners Old and New

Throughout the event, our team – Beatriz Collalto, Valeria Dimatteo, and Padraig Hourigan – engaged in a full schedule of meetings with valued partners, colleagues, and new collaborators. These conversations reaffirmed our shared commitment to providing high quality educational experiences and creating pathways that help students feel at home wherever they go.

Whether discussing programme development, new markets, or evolving student needs, every meeting highlighted the strength of our global relationships and our position within the International House World Organisation network.

Looking Ahead With Excitement

ICEF Berlin is always a place of innovation, collaboration, and opportunity. This year, we returned to Dublin energised by the ideas exchanged and inspired by the people we met. The connections formed at ICEF contribute directly to IH Dublin’s mission: helping students belong everywhere and ensuring they receive outstanding support throughout their international education journey.

As we plan for the months ahead, we look forward to building on the momentum of ICEF 2025, expanding our partnerships, and developing initiatives that will benefit our students, partners, and global community.

A Global Community With Shared Goals

Being part of the International House World Organisation gives IH Dublin a powerful platform for collaboration with schools around the world. Events like ICEF Berlin demonstrate how strong this network is and how much we can achieve together.

To everyone who met with us, thank you for your time, your insight, and your partnership. We are excited for what lies ahead.

See You at ICEF 2026

With another successful ICEF behind us, we are already looking forward to what the next year will bring. Until then, IH Dublin will continue doing what we do best: welcoming students from around the world to Ireland and supporting their journey every step of the way.
