BMI connects you to…

Organisations

Access like no other

There’s no denying the power and appeal of funded scholarship programmes, both for the students who are lucky enough to qualify and the institutions that are fortunate enough to receive them.

Having the right contacts with funding organisations and government departments is critical, but finding the right people within them can often be a challenge. This is an audience which is in perpetually high demand and as such, is extraordinarily difficult to reach.

Forums that connect you with the most important scholarship organisations in the world

For these reasons, BMI has developed three prestigious events (traditionally held in London, Abu Dhabi, and Bogota or online when necessary) for scholarship providers to meet and select international partner institutions to receive their funded students.

Unlike any other event in the international education industry, BMI’s Scholarship Forums draw in the heads of the largest scholarship programmes in the world, including national and departmental government programmes, national and private corporations, as well as universities and vocational scholarship providers.

Watch our videos for a quick overview of how these luxurious, high-level networking events connect institutions with this coveted audience – either at the Global Scholarship Forum with more than 70 funding organisations in attendance, or at a regional forum for a geographic focus.

Connect with a VIP audience

BMI is proud to connect you with an elite audience of organisations that send or fund significant numbers of individuals for overseas study or training each year.

The annual Global Scholarship Forum attracts scholarship providers from around the world to London (or online when necessary) where scholarship organisations and institutions meet to discuss large scale training projects that may be delivered in country or abroad.

On a regional level, scholarship providers from across the Gulf will gather in Abu Dhabi this October for the Gulf Scholarship Forum, which is part of a series of events known as International Education Week UAE, with the Forum acting as the grand finale to cap-off the week’s government-supported events. Meanwhile, scholarship organisations from the Caribbean, North, Central and South America will converge on Bogota, Colombia for the BMI Americas Scholarship Forum in October 2023.

At each event, you’ll be able to pre-arrange private meetings with scholarship providers that best match your institution and the programmes you offer. You also be treated to an extensive programme of luxurious networking functions such as lunches, coffee breaks, a cocktail reception, and a Gala Dinner – all of which provide the perfect atmosphere to foster long lasting partnerships.

Worldwide Opportunities
Scholarship Organisations

At BMI's most prestigious event, we bring accredited institutions together with the heads of international scholarship organisations and senior staff who manage public and private training programmes to decide which education providers will receive their students and train their staff. No other event gives you this kind of access to such a powerful audience.

International Students

The BMI Americas Scholarship Forum will connect you with outbound government and private scholarship providers, as well as funding agencies, that support students from the Americas to study overseas. Making agreements with these organisations plays a pivotal role in an institution’s recruitment strategy, and developing personal relationships through face to face contact is the key to success in this part of the world.
