Internships Abroad


Internships abroad are a relatively new and still not fully explored and widespread concept. They are a branch of a broader education abroad phenomenon in higher education that have still generally not gone mainstream in many countries.


Considered as a privilege for the elite or doomed inaccessible for the masses due to structural, academic, language, and financial constraints, studying abroad is slowly opening up opportunities for students.  Internships abroad have a real chance of changing educational landscape and extending learning beyond the usual classroom. 


As studying abroad is contributing to the development of new cohorts of global citizens, internships abroad are shaping the new generation of globally trained and easily accessible candidates, able to comfortably compete for job openings wherever they happen to be. The invaluable professional experiences interning abroad brings about are becoming more available. Their biggest advantage in today’s economy seems to be the creation of required skills and the emergence of a mindset capable of grasping the complexities of globalised and interconnected world on a practical, individual level. 


Commitment to not only studying abroad, but actually immersing oneself in the professional community in another country carries an immense value when competing for a job. Internships abroad are becoming the necessary commitment all students should fit into their course of studies.

Love & Gratitude


Love & Gratitude, a florist boutique in Golders Green, is harnessing the 50 Million Dollar QR Code to market their flower shop across London. The boutique is offering customers who mention the 'QR Code'  a 50 % discount on all floral arrangements who visit their shop on the high street.  


Popabroad is developing these voucher style mobile promotions for clients that want to increase foot traffic through their retail outlets and for generating traffic to online stores. As the 50 Million Dollar QR Code gets more popular so do the businesses and sites connected to it. 


The 50 Million Dollar QR Code ad campaign can work for almost any personal or business related product, service and event. For example, if you have an ebay store and would like to promote your items, Popabroad can design you a mobile page and link your seller's page to the 50 Million Dollar QR Code. 


Connecting your site to the code is just the beginning. The more popular the code becomes the more we will promote it both online and offline. Plus we provide you with your own QR Code that links to your newly created mobile page so anyone that scans it will land directly on your page.
