​The recent ICEF Eurasia event, held from 17th to 19th March 2025 at the Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus in Istanbul, Türkiye, successfully brought together educators, industry service providers, and student recruitment agents from over 20 countries across Central Europe, Asia Minor, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. ​

Over the course of three days, participants engaged in thousands of meetings, fostering partnerships aimed at expanding opportunities for the tens of thousands of students they support in studying abroad each year. ​

ICEF Eurasia featured a comprehensive programme, including up to 38 one-to-one meetings per participant, live seminars, presentations, and panel discussions led by industry experts. These sessions provided valuable insights into the latest market trends and issues affecting the region, enhancing the knowledge and networks of all attendees. ​

Nestled amidst picturesque gardens, the Hilton Istanbul Bosphorus served as an ideal venue, offering modern amenities and private balconies with views of the Bosphorus and the Old Town. Delegates appreciated the resort-style facilities, including indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness centre, spa, Turkish baths, and exceptional dining options. ​

With a commitment to facilitating sustainable growth in international student mobility, ICEF organises over 20 events annually. These gatherings provide unparalleled networking opportunities for international education professionals seeking to expand their global partnerships. 

ICEF looks forward to welcoming participants back to future events, continuing to build on the success of ICEF Eurasia 2025.
